3 MENU SETUP

MENU DESCRIPTION

Many functions on this transceiver are selected or
configured via software-controlled menus instead of
physical controls on the transceiver. Once familiar

with the Menu system, you will appreciate the
versatility it offers. No longer is the number and
complexity of features restricted by the physical size
of transceiver.
The Menus are identified as Menu A and Menu B.

Menu A is used to access functions that are frequently

changed while Menu B is used for less frequently
changed functions.

MENU ACCESS

Anytime that you wish to change a function that is
controlled by Menu Setup, use the following

procedure:

1 Press [F] (2 s) or microphone [PF] to enter Menu

Setup.

2 Select Menu A or Menu B by pressing [A/B] or

microphone [VFO].
• The last menu number used and the current

menu selection appear.

3 Select the desired menu number by turning the

Alternate Tuning control.

4 Select the desired menu selection by pressing

[F.LOCK], or [LOW], or microphone [UP] or
[OWN].
• When selecting from a group of numeric menu

selections, [F.LOCK] or microphone [UP]
selects in ascending order, and [LOV\^ or
microphone [DWN] selects in descending
order.

5 After selecting the desired menu selection, press

[F], or [CLR], or microphone [PF] to exit Menu
Setup.

Note:

Accessing menus while the Frequency Lock function is ON

cancels Frequency Lock temporarily. Frequency Lock is
restored after exiting Menu Setup.

The Automatic Power Off timer stops counting while you are in

Menu Setup.
