Main Window Indicators
The Main Window displays the block number, Standby
or Operating mode, operating frequency, audio level,
battery status and programmable switch function. When
the frequency step size is set at 100 kHz, the LCD will
look like the following.

number is smaller and may include a fraction.

Changing the step size never changes the frequency.
It only changes the way the user interface works. If the
frequency is set to a fractional increment between even
100 kHz steps and the step size is changed to 100 kHz,
the hex code will be replaced by two asterisks on the
main screen and the frequency screen.
