PRECAUTIONS RWARNING!Safe driving requires your full attention-- anything less may result in an accident. AVOID using or placing the receiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below ­10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). BE CAREFUL!The receiver will become hot when operating it continuously for long periods. [. . . ] Generally, duplex is used in communication through a repeater, some utility communications, etc. During duplex operation, the transmit station frequency is shifted from the receive station frequency by the offset frequency. Repeater information (offset frequency and shift direction) can be programmed into memory channels. 16)) tRotate [DIAL] to set the desired offset frequency within 0. 000­1000. 000 MHz range. · The tuning step, selected in VFO mode, is used for setting. · Push [V/MHz· SCAN] then rotate [DIAL] to change the frequency in 10 MHz steps, or push again then rotate [DIAL] to change the frequency in 1 MHz steps. (Each push toggles 1MHz, 10 MHz or selected tuning steps. ) D Setting [ yPush [TS·MODE] or any switch below the display to exit set mode. q Push [SET·LOCK] to enter set mode. wPush [SET·LOCK] or [S.

"" " " " Beep Beep Beep 21 MEMORY OPERATION 5 Memory bank setting The IC-R72 has a total of 21 banks (A to H, J to R, T, U, W, Y). Regular memory channels, 0 to 999, may assigned into the desired bank for easy memory management. Push [MR·SKIP] to select memory mode, then rotate [DIAL] to select the desired memory channel. · "!" and memory channel number appear. [ rRotate [DIAL] to select the desired bank and bank channel. · Push [SET·LOCK] to toggle the bank or bank channel selection. · Vacant bank channel numbers are only be displayed. 5 Bank selection Bank channel selection wPush [S.

Transferring bank contents [ The bank contents of programmed memory channels can be cleared or transferred to another bank. INFORMATION: Even if the memory bank contents are cleared, the memory channel contents still remain programmed. [DIAL] [MR·SKIP] eRotate [DIAL] to select the desired bank (A to H, J to R, T, U, W or Y). · Only programmed banks are displayed. r Push any switch to set the bank indication. · Bank's indicator appears at top of the memory channel. qSelect the desired bank contents to be transferred or erased from the bank. Push [MR·SKIP] again then rotate [DIAL] to select the desired memory bank. t Rotate [DIAL] to select the contents in the bank. [. . . ] The received AF signals are converted to digital signals and then the desired signals are separated from the noise. w Push [SET·LOCK] or [S. MW·MW] several times until "nr" appears. [SET·LOCK] [DIAL] [S.
