Setting Frequency Options

Before you can use your transceiver, an authorized service facil-

ity must set your transceiver to a VHF business band frequency

you have a license to use. Then, you can select a preset CTCSS

(Continuous Tone Control Squelch System) frequency and set

your transceiver to use it.

Here is what you need to do to set your transceiver to use CTC-

SS.

1) Send your transceiver to an authorized service facility to have

it set to a business band frequency.

2) Set the DIP switches for a CTCSS frequency (see “Using a

CTCSS frequency” on Page 16).

3) Set your transceiver to that CTCSS frequency.

4) Set the CTCSS ON/OFF switch on the front panel to activate or

deactivate CTCSS.

You can select one CTCSS frequency at a time. If you do not

want to use a CTCSS frequency or change default frequency,

skip Steps 2

4 above.

To use business band frequency, read the following steps:

1) Set the CTCSS sliding switch on the front panel to OFF.

2) Select channel switch to ‘1’ or ‘2’.

Notes:

• Make sure the first digit DIP switch is always set to 0 (down)

when you finish the above steps and before operation.

• The second-digit DIP switch should be set to 0 (down) when

you are using one of the 9 preset frequencies or set to 1 (up)

when using channel 1 by an authorized service facility.
