6. To confirm that the pro­
gramming was properly per­
formed rotate the Tuning
control. The transceiver
should not go above or be­
low the programmed band
limits.
7. To clear both programmed
limits simultaneously you

CAUTION
Ensure
that an antenna with a low standing wave
ratio (SWR) is attached to the antenna connector
before attempting to transmit. Failure to provide
proper termination may result in damage to the final
amplifier section.
Always check to ensure the frequency is clear before
transmitting.
1. Select the desired operating frequency using any of
the methods described above.
2. Check the frequency to see if it is occupied before
you transmit. If you are using CTCSS (Tone Squelch)
press the MONI switch to allow the Squelch to open.
3. Press the PTT switch. The ON AIR indicator will light.
4. Speak into the microphone. The recommended dis-
ance to the microphone is 5 cm (2 inches).
Note
Talking closer may result in overdeviation of your
transmit signal, and talking too far away may result
in reports of weak audio.
5. Release the PTT switch to return to the receive mode.
The ON AIR indicator should go out.
