To cancel Direct Tuning input
Press ERASE before pressing EXE.
Notes
•The frequency steps and detection modes u’ili be set to default
(see "Frequency range of the bands", page 10). To change the
frequency step or detection mode, press STEP or MODE after
you have tuned in a frequency (see "Adjusting frequency step
and detection mode", page 31).
•If the frequency you have input is not a step frequencv, the
frequency will automatically change to a step frequency,
•If vou tune in directly (i.e., input frequency digits and press EXE)
in the Scanning Mode, the receiver will go into the Manual
Mode. However, this is not the case during Memory Scanning;
pressing the number keys will add/delete scanning target pages.
•If the frequency is a round figure above the decimal point, you
do not need to input the digits below the decimal point.
Example: to tune in directly to 128.(X)0 MHz
Press ®->(2)4®4EXE
•If you take more than 10 seconds between key input. Direct
Tuning will be cancelled and the receiver returns to the previous
condition.
Note on band border frequencies in Direct Tuning or
Manual Tuning
The highest frequency of a band is the same as the lowest
frequency of the next band (except for that of the highest band).
For these frequencies, the default frequency steps and detection
modes are set as the lowest frequencies of the next band.

Tune in by pressing the +/- kevs.
The key will move the frequency up and the - kev
will move the frequencv down. One press will move
the frequencv one step. Hold down the key to move
up or down continuously.
Note
• The changes vou have made in frequencv step or detection mode
arc effective only in the current band. When you have entered a
different band while pressing the +/- kevs, the frequency step
and detection mode will return to the default for that band (see
"Frequency range of the bands", page 10).
•If vou press + at 1300 MHz, the frequency display will change to
25 MHz. If you press - at 25 MHz, the frequency display will
change to 1300 MHz.
