Manually tuning the antenna
WARNING: Before using the antenna system see the safety information provided.
NOTE: If the transceiver is connected to an automatic tuning antenna, it tunes
the antenna automatically when required.
You may need to manually tune the antenna if you are receiving on a new channel, or
if you want to check the SWR value for the antenna.
To manually tune the antenna:
Press
TUNE.
The SWR, battery voltage, and type of antenna tuner are shown on the screen.
Hold down PTT to start the tuning process.
The transceiver makes a series of short beeps.
An SWR of less than 2:1 is acceptable.
NOTE: If PTT is held for more than 2 minutes, tuning is automatically
aborted. The transceiver displays a message to inform you of
this, makes an error beep, and returns you to the screen from
which you began.
Release PTT to stop tuning.
The beeps cease and you are returned to the screen from which you began.
