CHANGING FREQUENCY STEP SIZE
Choosing the correct step size is essential in order to select
your exact receive frequency with the
Tuning control or
microphone [UP]/[DWN], The best step size on each band
is the largest step that will still allow you to select all
frequencies on which you plan to operate. Using the best
step size reduces the time required to select new
frequencies; operating becomes easier.
The default step size is as follows;
VefsIOR TM-261A TM-261EJ
U.S.A./Canada 5 kHz
—
25 kHz
China
- -
25 kHz
General 12.5 kHz 20 kHz 25 kHz
To change the frequency step size, select the VFO mode,
and access “RS” in Menu A {page 17}. You cannot use the
function if you access Menu A after a memory channel or
the Call channel is recalled.
■ Changes in Displayed Frequencies
Changing between step sizes may result in a change of
the displayed frequency. When a change occurs, and
by how much, is shown in the accompanying tables.
For example, assume 144.995 MHz is displayed with a
5 kHz step size selected. Changing to a 12.5 kHz step
size alters the displayed frequency to 144.975 MHz.
