D Turning power ON/OFF
Before operating the transceiver for the first time it’s a good
idea to reset the transceiver’s CPU. This will ensure that all
transceiver settings are at their defaults. See p. 75 for CPU
resetting details.
➥ Push [POWER] for 2 sec. to turn power ON or OFF.
D Operating band
The transceiver can receive 144 MHz and 430(440) MHz
band signals simultaneously. To activate all functions or to
change frequency via the microphone, you must designate
one band as the main band. The transceiver can transmit a
signal on the main band only.
➥ Push either [MAIN] to select the desired transmit band.
• “ Q ” indicator shows the selected band as the main band.
➥ Push [BAND] to select the desired operating
band.
• “ Q ” indicator shows the selected band as the
main band.

memory mode. Select VFO mode first to set an operating fre-
quency.
➥ Push [V/M H ] to select VFO mode when the transceiver is
not in VFO mode.
• If VFO mode is already selected,
the digits below 100* kHz disap-
pear. In this case, push [V/M
H ]
