Operation

5. SQUELCH CONTROL: This control is used to control or eliminate 
receiver background noise in the absence of an incoming signal. For 
maximum receiver sensitivity, it is necessary that the control be 
adjusted only to the point where the receiver background noise is 
eliminated. Turn fully counterclockwise and then slowly clockwise until 
the receiver noise just disappears. Any signal to be received must now 
be slightly stronger than the average received noise. Further clockwise 
rotation will increase the threshold level that a signal must overcome in 
order to be heard. Only strong signals will be heard at a maximum 
clockwise squelch setting. 
 
6. RF GAIN CONTROL: This control is used to reduce the receiver's front-
end gain when receiving strong signals.  
 
7. CLARIFIER CONTROL: Allows variation of the receive frequency above 
and below the selected receive frequency as shown on the display. 
This control is intended primarily to tune in SSB signals when 
communicating with several stations that may not be exactly on 
frequency. It may also be used to optimize AM/FM signals as 
described in the operating procedure paragraph. The clarifier can adjust 
the receive frequency ±2.5KHz but does not affect the transmit 
frequency or the frequency display.  
 
8. MODE SWITCH: This switch allows you to select one of the following 
six operating modes: FM, AM, USB, LSB, CW and PA.   
 
9. NB/ANL BUTTON (NB/ANL): The noise blanker (NB) is very effective in 
eliminating repetitive impulse noise such as ignition interference. In the 
ANL position, the AUTOMATIC NOISE LIMITER also limits noise at the 
receiver audio stages.  
 
10. ROGER BEEP BUTTON (R.BEEP):  This switch activates the ROGER 
BEEP circuit, when its function is selected. When enabled, the radio 
automatically transmits an audio tone each time you release the PTT. 
This indicates the end of each transmission so that stations who may

be having trouble receiving will know that you have finished 
transmitting. This feature is sometimes used in weak signal conditions 
or other special circumstances.  We discourage use of this feature in 
normal operation, as it can be annoying to other operators. 
 
11. SPLIT BUTTON (SPLIT):  Enables the offsetting of the transmitter 
frequency by up to ± 2 MHz (programmable) for FM repeater 
operation. 
 
12. PROGRAM BUTTON (PRG): Used to pre-program operating or 
scanning frequencies into memory. See the OPERATION section of this 
manual for details. 
 
13. MANUAL BUTTON (MAN): Used to return the unit to manual mode. 
 
14. SHIFT BUTTON (SHF): Determines which digit will change when 
changing frequencies, by placing a “cursor” under the desired digit.  
Allows frequency to be changed in 100 Hz, 1KHz, 10KHz, 100KHz and 
1 MHz increments.  
 
15. DIM BUTTON (DIM): This button adjusts the display backlighting in 
four different steps to best match the ambient light. 
 
16. SWR BUTTON (SWR): Used to check relative SWR. 
 
17. SCAN BUTTON (SCAN): Used to enable the scanning of frequencies. 
See the PROGRAMMING and SCANNING section of this manual for 
detailed information on using the scan control. 
  
18. MEMORY BUTTON (MEM): Used to program often used frequencies 
in memory.  Detailed information on how to use this control is provided 
in the PROGRAMMING section of the manual. 
 
19. ENTER BUTTON (ENT): Used to program frequencies in memory.  
See PROGRAMMING section.
