Dual Receive (DW) Function
The transceiver is equipped with the following 3 types of Dual Receive Functions:
• VFO Dual Receive
• Memory Channel Dual Receive
• Home Channel Dual Receive
The transceiver checks for signals on the frequency registered to the selected memory
channel (Priority Memory Channel) once approximately every 5 seconds. When receiv-
ing a signal on the frequency registered to a priority memory channel, the Dual Receive
function automatically pauses, and allows reception of the signals.
Example: Checking the priority memory channel “100” (145.000 MHz), while receiving
“432.500 MHz”.
