BK Radio
ALPHA DISPLAY MODE
If you have an Aurora radio with a display,
you can select how the radio shows you the
current group/channel alphanumeric
information:
• Priority channel/deleted channel specifier
(first display character position)
P = Group priority channel
Select in scanlist
p = Group priority channel
Delete from scanlist
“ ” = Not group priority channel
Select in scanlist
d = Not group priority channel
Delete from scanlist
• Current Group/Channel alphanumeric
YYYYYYYYY = display character
position 2–11
YYYYYYYYYY = group/channel
alphanumeric, up to 10 characters
• Variable Guard reassignment
ZZ = display character position 13–14
ZZ = reassigned Code Guard channel,
between 1 and 16
For example, the display to the left shows a
radio in group 8 and tuned to channel 12
whose channel label is Office. Channel 12 is
not the priority channel of the group and has
been deleted from the scan list. You
reassign the Code Guard of channel 12 to
the Code Guard assigned to channel 2. The
display will then look like the bottom
display to the left.
