[. . . ] This may result in an electrical shock or burn. Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children. During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the vehicle's engine. When the transceiver power is ON and your vehicle's engine is OFF, the vehicle's battery will soon become exhausted. [. . . ] i Repeat steps q to u to program other ranges. to turn the power OFF once, then push [POWER] to turn the power ON while pushing and holding [FM] and [TONE]. · The memory channels can be used for normal operation after programming. · Korea version FREQUENCY RANGE 1439. 0000­1440. 0000 MHz 1290. 0000­1293. 0000 MHz SHIFT DIRECTION "DUP­" appears "DUP­" appears D Setting the shift direction for the one-touch repeater function (except Europe, Sweden and Italy versions) q Push [M/S·BAND] or [SUB] to select the desired frequency band. w Push [SET] then [FM] to enter the FM set mode. e Push [DN M] or [L UP] to select shift direction item. · "o_touch" and "rPt" are displayed. r Rotate the tuning dial to select the desired direction. · "DUP­" or "DUP+" is selectable. t Push [FM] to exit from the FM set mode. 34 RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT 5 D Manual repeater setting q Set the desired frequency. · Push [M/S·BAND] to select the desired band if required. · Push [FM] to select FM mode if required. e Push [TONE] to activate the tone encoder. · "T" indicator appears. · Set the tone frequency in the FM set mode, if required for non-European versions. . · 1750 Hz tone is transmitted for Europe, Sweden and Italy versions. w Push [SPLIT·DUP] for 1 sec. to select the duplex operation and the shift direction. · "DUP­" or "DUP+" indicator appears, depending on the selection. · Set the offset frequency in the FM set mode, if required. r Push [SPLIT·DUP] for 1 sec. and [TONE] to cancel the duplex operation and deactivate the tone encoder. · "DUP­" or "DUP+" and "T" indicators disappear. D Using the one-touch repeater function (except Europe, Sweden and Italy versions) By using the pre-programmed offset frequency, shift direction and tone frequency, quick and simple repeater operation can be made. The default values for offset frequency and direction are as follows: 144 MHz band : ­0. 600 MHz 430(440) MHz band : ­5. 000 MHz 1200 MHz band : ­20. 000 MHz (optional) Tone frequency : 88. 5 Hz q Push [M/S·BAND] to select the desired frequency band. t Push [COMP] to turn the speech compressor ON. y Push [SET] then [COMP] to enter the COMP set mode. u Rotate the tuning dial to adjust the compression level to the point where the maximum value and the MAIN band indicator brightness does not increase, whether or not you speak softly or loudly. · When the MAIN band indicator continuously lights red with increased brightness, your transmitted voice may be distorted. · It's a good idea to adjust the compressor level by monitoring with an other transceiver or receiver, if you have one, or with an other station. [MIC GAIN] i Push [COMP] to exit the COMP set mode. 36 RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT 5 I Split frequency operation Split frequency operation allows you to transmit and receive on two different frequencies in the same frequency band. Split frequency operation uses 2 frequencies, one in VFO A and the other in VFO B. q Set a receive frequency in VFO mode. · Either VFO A or VFO B can be used. USB SPLIT VFO B y Push [SPLIT]. · "SPLIT" indicator appears. · Now you can receive on the displayed VFO and transmit on the undisplayed VFO. · To monitor the transmit frequency, push [CHECK 7]. w Push [A=B 2] for 1 sec. · The undisplayed VFO contents are cleared and equalized to the displayed frequency. e To change the receive frequency, rotate the tuning dial. USB VFO A u Push [SPLIT] to cancel the split frequency operation. · "SPLIT" indicator disappears. [TRANSMIT] [SPLIT] [A=B 2] [A/B 3] r To replace the transmit and receive frequencies, push [A/B 3]. USB VFO B t To change the transmit frequency, rotate the tuning dial while pushing [CHECK 7]. Cross mode communication can be performed using the split function. USB and CW) I Full duplex operation The MAIN and SUB bands are activated independently, therefore, simultaneous transmission and reception in different frequency bands are possible. q Push [M/S·BAND] to select the desired frequency band for transmission. · Push [V/M 1] to select VFO or memory mode, if desired. [. . . ] Same as that supplied with the transceiver. SP-21 EXTERNAL SPEAKER SM-20 DESKTOP MICROPHONE UT-106 DSP UNIT Designed for base station operation. · Input impedance: 8 · Max. input power: 5 W Unidirectional, electret microphone for base station operation. Includes [UP] and [DOWN] switches and a low cut function. Allows AF DSP capabilities, including noise reduction and auto notch filter. UX-910 1200 MHz BAND UNIT MB-23 CARRYING HANDLE CT-17 CI-V LEVEL CONVERTER Allows you additional all mode operation on the 1200 MHz band.
