Using The Edit Page
The EDIT PAGE allows the operator to temporarily change properties of a preset channel, and permanently change
properties of a manual channel. Precisely which properties can be changed varies with channel and radio type. For
example, transmit power can only be changed on RT-5000 radios, because the other radios do not have variable
power capability. The following illustration is an example of what the EDIT PAGE looks like. Your C-5000’s
display may appear differently depending on the currently selected channel and its associated properties.
