D Operating note · BE SURE to use optional CP-19R when connecting a regulated 12 V DC power supply into the [DC 11V] jack of the transceiver. · The voltage of the external power supply must be within 11. 7­15. 9 V DC when using CP-19R. Use an external DC-DC converter to connect the transceiver through CP-19R to a 24 V DC power source. · Disconnect the power cables from the transceiver when not using it. · The power save function is deactivated automatically during external DC power operation.

(*Some versions only requires two digits. ) · When changing 100 kHz and below, push [#] then enter the desired digits. · When a digit is mistakenly input, push [CLR] to abort input. Power ON Push and hold [PWR] for 1 sec. to turn power ON. PWR A FUNC TONE B CALL P. BEEP C MR T.

Weather channel group indication Y Z w Push [Y] or [Z] several times to select the desired weather channel. e Push [MR] to select memory mode, or push [CLR] to select VFO mode. r When the alert is detected, a beep sounds and the following indication will be displayed. D Weather alert function USING SET MODE An NOAA broadcast station transmits weather alert tone before important weather announcements. When the weather alert function is turned ON, the selected weather channel is monitored each 5 sec. When the alert signal is detected, the "ALt" and the WX channel are displayed alternately and sounds a beep tone until the transceiver controls are manipulated. The previously selected weather channel is checked periodically during standby or while scanning. Shows above indications alternately. · Weather alert function OFF Turn the weather alert function OFF in SET MODE. · Repeat above procedure described at step w NOTE: While receiving a signal (on a frequency other than the weather alert ON frequency), the receiving signal or audio will be interrupted momentarily every 5 sec. To eliminate the interruptions, set the weather alert item OFF in SET MODE. 21 REPEATER OPERATION General When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive frequency by the offset frequency. It is convenient to program repeater information into memory channels. w Push [FUNC] and [DUP](4) several times to select "­" or "+. " · "­" indicates the transmit frequency is shifted down; "+" indicates the transmit frequency is shifted up. [. . . ] If the problem persists, perform the following procedure. · Partial resetting is also available. See left for details. IMPORTANT!: Resetting the transceiver CLEARS all memory information and initializes all values in the transceiver. to reset the CPU. · "CLEAR" indicates, then initial display appears.
