Priority channel „Dual Watch“
Your radio allows monitoring two often used channels automatically in sequence.
You can always check the present working frequency together with another channel of Your memory (or
the Call channel).
• Select your working frequency (VFO), e.g. 145.575 MHz
• Select a second channel from Memory 1-0 or Call channel
• Press FUNC, then PRI.
Now the radio will monitor what happens on your working frequency (in the example 145.575 MHz)
alternating with the later selected Memory 1-0 or Call channel.
If a memory channel should have been selected as second channel, this channel may be changed even
during scanning.
• Stop priority scanning via short use of the PTT button or by FUNC + PRI
Monitor key
This key disables the squelch setting and opens the squelch as long as the key will be kept pressed.
The feature is useful if a received signal becomes weak, or when the receiver is muted by CTCSS in
the T-SQ setting or by DTMF decoder and you would like to hear what happens on the channel.
• Press FUNC, followed by MONI and hold the key pressed. The squelch will open after a
second and will remain open as long as you press the key.
Complete key locking
The complete key locking will lock all keys except the PTT and Moni keys. So it locks more functions
compared to the lock switch on microphone.
• Press FUNC and then LOCK
You will see the
icon in the display.
• Unlock again with Func + Lock
Transmit power switching Hi / Low
• Press FUNC and after this for a short moment the PTT key.
The display shows LOW as indication for reduced output power (about 10 watts). When transmitting,
you will see less bars of the digital meter reading.
• Switch back to Hi power by same sequence FUNC and PTT.
The icon LOW will disappear again.
