[. . . ] 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. [. . . ] y Push [L UP] to select the memory channel 2. · Select memory channel 4 or 6, respectively if the memory channel 3 or 5 is selected in step e. u Push [MW 4] for 1 sec. to program the contents into the memory. 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 Setting the shift direction for the onetouch repeater function 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. Manual repeater setting (non-European versions) q Set the desired frequency. · Push [M/S·BAND] to select the desired band if required. · Push [FM] to select FM mode if required. 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 Rotate the tuning dial to select the desired direction. · "DUP­" or "DUP+" is selectable. t Push [FM] to exit from the FM set mode. e Push [TONE] to activate the tone encoder. · "T" indicator appears. · Set the tone 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. counterclockwise e Transmit at your normal voice level. r Adjust the [MIC GAIN] control so that the MAIN band indicator periodically lights red brightly whether or not you speak softly or loudly. 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. [. . . ] 500 Hz/­6 dB Hand microphone equipped with [UP]/[DOWN] switches. 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.
