memory and “SCAN” function activation. In this case, you can automatically seek
for a busy channel:
• turn the squelch clockwise until the background noise is no longer heard;
• press the “M3 - SCAN” button: “SCAN” will be shown on the display and the
transceiver will automatically scan all the channels until a carrier is being
received.
This function can be deactivated in three ways: pressing the PTT button, turning the
channel selector or simply pushing any other button on the unit.
12. “M4/LCR - AM/FM” button
Stores the memory number 4 and selects the operative mode ( AM/FM). AM: green
LED; FM: red LED. If you select a frequency band operating in FM modulation only,
this button activates the LCR function (Last Channel Recall).
13. “M5 - LOCK” switch
Pressing this button, you memorize the fifth (last) memory and activate the “LOCK”
function (it allows the locking of the keyboard, channel selector and “UP/DN” buttons
on the microphone, thus avoiding accidental use of the keys).
14. N.K. button
Pressing this switch, you activate the reducing noise device (see introduction).
15. “MIC” knob
The amplification of the voice in TX must be adjusted with this knob. The optimum
level of the modulation must be found with the help of your receiving partner.
16. “RF” knob
It controls the reception sensitivity.
To increase sensitivity, simply turn it clockwise. Sensitivity decreases turning it
counterclockwise.
17. “VOL” knob
It allows the switching on of the unit and sets the volume to a comfortable audio
level.
18. “Squelch” knob
For the maximum receiver sensitivity, the control must be regulated exactly where
the receiver background noise disappears.
