select Menu No. 26 (FMN).

2 Press [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to select

“ON” or “OFF” (default).

3 Press [MENU] to store the setting or any other key to

cancel.

4 Press any key other than [MENU] to exit Menu Mode.

When narrow band FM operation is ON, “N” appears in
the top right of the LCD.

Note:  You can store the narrow band FM operation status to the
Memory Channels {page 29}.

You can change the Power-on message (a maximum of
6 characters) when the transceiver is turned ON.

1 Press [F], [MENU] and turn the Tuning control to

select Menu No. 23 (P.ON.MSG).
