For example:

Assume

you

are

presently

displaying

a

frequency

of

439.920 MHz and had previously selected a 20 kHz step
size. If you were to change the step size to 12.5 kHz the
display would then read 439.925 MHz.

4-2-4. Programmable VFO tuning limits

The

radio

provide

the

capability

of

programming

the

VFO tuning range, in 1 MHz band segments, as well a

providing

a

separate programmable

band scan

function. (See section 4-5.) For example you could tell
the transceiver that you only wish to tune the 144.000

MHz and 145.000 MHz band segment by specifying any

frequency

with these

two segments.

The

Tuning

controls

would

then

only

tune

within

these

specific

bands.

The

procedure

for

specifying

the

bands

is

described below.

1. Press the VFO key to select

the VFO mode.

2.

Rotate

the

Tuning

control

until

the

desired

lower

tuning range appears in the
frequency display.

For example you might want

to select the 144 MHz band,
and dial up 144.100 MHz.

3. Turn off the transceiver

POWER switch.

Now

press

and hold the SHIFT key while

you

turn

on

the

POWER

switch. You will hear a beep
when

you

turn

the

radio

back

on.

This

indicates

that

the lower limit has been suc­
cessfully stored in memory.

4.

Now select the desired upper

tuning

limit

using

the

MHz

key and the Tuning control.

With

our

example

we

want

the upper band limit to be in
the 145 MHz

band,

and

therefore

dial

up

145.100

MHz.

5. Turn off the transceiver

POWER switch.

Now

press

and hold the REV key while

you

turn

on

the

POWER

switch. You will hear a beep
when you turn the radio
