Waveform Profiles
A waveform profile is a set of instructions stored in the radio that define a mode of operation and certain
parameters associated with the mode. Up to 20 waveform profiles can be created and stored in the radio.
When a waveform profile is recalled, the user is prompted to enter an operating frequency (or a channel
number if in Maritime mode).
Fig 3-6 and Fig 3-7 show example waveform profiles. The default waveform profile designations are
WP1 to WP20. When created and stored in the radio, the designation can be changed to any name
containing up to eight characters. The waveform profile WP6 illustrated in Fig 3-6 could be renamed, for
example, AMV30W (signifying AM voice with a 30 watt output).
Fig 3-6 Example AM-Voice Waveform Profile
Table 3-5 on page 3-35 shows all radio parameters that are stored with a waveform profile. Creating
waveform profiles is detailed in Creating and Storing a Waveform Profile on page 3-32.
