power (1 watt) by default. You can bypass this power setting by pressing the 

 soft key 

during transmission.

 key, the screen displays 

a message to press 

 to bypass the 1 W transmission requirement.

 soft key to broadcast on HI. The radio bypasses the 1 W transmission 

requirement until you release the 

 key.

IMPORTANT: If you turn on ATIS, the radio cannot scan or save channels. See
