• What have been programmed from a PC are stored in memory even after the

TNC unit is removed from the transceiver.

• This TNC unit is not equipped with all the functions an external TNC may have

(Some functions may be limited).

IMPORTANT: • Packet communication is easy to be affected by transmission and re-

ception environment and especially in 9600bps packet mode, commu-

nication error may easily occur unless all segments of S-meter are dis-

played.

• While in packet mode or geolocating communication mode, tones or

codes are not output even if Tone setting or DCS setting is programmed.
