QUICK USE
If you have a handy transceiver, the steps given here will allow you to try SSTV with
your friend right away.
Note: To correctly receive or transmit images, you and your friend have to select the same SSTV mode. If you
prefer using a mode other than Robot (color) 36 which is the factory default, see “SELECTING A SSTV MODE”
{page 7} and “RECEIVING IMAGES” {page 10}.
Confirm that the VC-H1 has
been correctly connected with
the transceiver {page 5}.
