Basic Shortcuts And Use Antenna Requirements Antenna SWR Rating : 1.5:1 or less (on the radio frequencies in use.) Antenna Impedance : 50 ohm (use 50 ohm rated coax and coax connectors). Antenna Grounding : Ensure the antenna is mounted with a grounding plane. RRVisually Inspect Coax/Connectors for any Slits or Damage – moisture should not be allowed to penetrate fittings or your coax.
Making a call Press and hold the PTT button on the side of the handheld mic to transmit. While transmitting, speak approximately 3-5cm (1-2 inches) from the microphone. When you release the PTT your transceiver will go back to its receive mode. Channel selection There are two modes of operation: Frequency (VFO) mode, and Channel or Memory (MR) mode. For everyday use, Channel (MR) mode is going to be a whole lot more practical than Frequency (VFO) mode.

Programming Frequency Mode vs. Channel Mode Switch between Modes by Using the V/M Front Panel Button. These two modes have different functions and are often confused. Frequency Mode (VFO) Used for a temporary frequency assignment, such as a test frequency or quick field programming if permitted. Channel Mode (MR) Used for selecting preprogrammed channels. RRAll programming must be initially done in the frequency mode (VFO) only.
