MHz Mode Operations 252-Year Warranty MHz Mode Operations In the MHz mode the radio displays the selected receive frequency by its MHz designation. You can scroll through all legitimate frequencies from the low- est end to the highest end of the band. Selecting MHz Mode If theLCD Screen (18) is displaying a channel number, this means that the radio is currently operating in Memory mode. To operate in MHz mode: ¥ Press . Selecting the Frequency Step Size Frequency step size determines the incremental steps the receiver takes when you rotate theSelector Knob (2), or when the radio is scanning the frequency band. NOTEThe availablefrequency step sizes are 5, 10, 12.5,15, 20, and 25 kHz. IMPORTANTThe selectedfrequency step size is retained even ifyou turn off the radio. To select the frequency step size: Ê Press and hold until the LCD Screen (18) indi- cates the current frequency step size, in this case 12.5 kHz. MODE STEPCLOW
MHz Mode Operations 262-Year Warranty ËRotate the Selector Knob (2) to the desired fre- quency step size. ÌMomentarily press Toggle Light / Enter and Param- eter Transfer Button (4) (or any button) to save this frequency step size and return to normal opera- tion. IMPORTANTThe radio automatically save and return to normaloperation after about 5 seconds of inactivity. NOTEThe user-deÞned TX frequency may be changed automatically without indication depending on the change in the frequency step size selected (seeÒSelecting The TX OffsetÓon page 28). Selecting A Receive Frequency The various ways of selecting a receive frequency are as follows: (i) Through TheNumeric Keypad (19) In MHz mode: ¥ Enter the desired frequency NOTEIf the radio is left idle for more than 5 seconds, it will revert back to the original frequency. When all the 6 digits are entered, the receiver will tune itself to that frequency.
MHz Mode Operations 272-Year Warranty NOTEIf an invalid number is pressed, the valid number nearest to this number is shown. This ensures that selected frequency is within the allowed frequency band. Please also note that valid frequencies are also dependent on the frequency step size (seeÒSelecting the Frequency Step SizeÓonpage 25). Only valid numbers are displayed. (ii) Through TheSelector Knob (2) In MHz mode: ¥ Rotate the Selector Knob (2) to the desired fre- quency. (iii) ThroughNumeric Keypad (19) andSelector Knob (2) combination In MHz mode: Ê Enter the Þrst few digits of the desired frequency through the Numeric Keypad (19). ËPress Toggle Light / Enter and Parameter Transfer Button (4) to commit the partially entered fre- quency. NOTEUnentered digits are coerced to the nearest validfrequency. Ì Rotate the Selector Knob (2) until the desired fre- quency is displayed. NOTEThe frequency increments, or decrements, accord-ing to the selected frequency step size.
MHz Mode Operations 282-Year Warranty Selecting The TX Offset For the AP 73, the transmit frequency can be the same as the receive frequency (no offset), or having a stan- dard positive or negative offset, or it can be a user- deÞned TX frequency. Ê Press momentarily to toggle between no off- set, standard positive, negative offset, or user- deÞned TX frequency (refer to the table below). Programming A User-DeÞned TX Frequency ÊPress and hold until the Ò+ ÐÓ indicators begin to ßash (takes about 3 seconds). NOTETheLCD Screen (18) displays the current user-deÞned TX frequency. Ë Enter the desired TX frequency via one of the fol- lowing method: (i) Through TheNumeric Keypad (19) ÀEnter the desired TX frequency. NOTETo Þll in trailing zeros, pressToggle Light / Enterand Parameter Transfer Button (4).

MHz Mode Operations 292-Year Warranty ÁPress the Toggle Light / Enter and Parame- ter Transfer Button (4) to accepts the TX fre- quency and return to normal operation. (ii) Through TheSelector Knob (2) ÀRotate the Selector Knob (2) to the desired user-deÞned TX frequency. ÁPress the Toggle Light / Enter and Parame- ter Transfer Button (4) to accepts the TX fre- quency and return to normal operation. (iii) ThroughNumeric Keypad (19) andSelector Knob (2) combination In MHz mode: À Enter the Þrst few digits of the desired TX fre- quency through the Numeric Keypad (19). ÁPress the Toggle Light / Enter and Parame- ter Transfer Button (4) to commit the partially entered TX frequency. NOTEUnentered digits are coerced to the nearest validfrequency. Â Rotate the Selector Knob (2) until the desired TX frequency is displayed. NOTEThe frequency increments, or decrements, accord-ing to the selected frequency step size. Ã Press the Toggle Light / Enter and Parame- ter Transfer Button (4) to commit this TX fre- quency.
MHz Mode Operations 302-Year Warranty IMPORTANTThe radio automatically exits this mode after 5 sec- onds of inactivity. Partially entered frequency is NOT stored. NOTEWhen receiving, the radio displays the selected RX frequency whereas when transmitting, it displays the selected TX frequency.
Memory Mode Operations 312-Year Warranty Memory Mode Operations In the Memory mode, the radio operates on the selected memory channel and theLCD Screen (18)displays xxx (where xxx represents the selected channel number). For example, channel 08 is dis- played as follows: Selecting Memory Mode If theLCD Screen (18) is displaying a frequency num- ber, this means that the radio is currently operating in MHz mode. To operate in Memory mode: ¥ Press . NOTEIf none of the 20 memory channels has been pro- grammed, aninvalid keypress tone sounds and the radio remains in the MHz mode (seeÒProgram-ming A Memory ChannelÓon page 32). Selecting A Memory Channel ¥ Rotate theSelector Knob (2) to the desired chan- nel number. NOTEThe channel number increments, or decrements, according to the available programmed memory channels. Empty channels are NOT displayed. MODE
Memory Mode Operations 322-Year Warranty Programming A Memory Channel There are 20 memory channels available. Each mem- ory channel consists of a receive / transmit frequency pair, the type of TX offset and the offset frequency. NOTEChannels 19 and 20 are normally used to store the frequency limits for Programmable Band Scan operation (see ÒProgrammable Band ScanÓonpage 34). In MHz mode: Ê Select the desired frequency, type of TX offset and offset frequency (seeÒMHz Mode OperationsÓon page 25). ËPress and hold theToggle Light / Enter and Parameter Transfer Button (4) until theLCD Screen (18) shows xxx (where xxx is the last channel selected in Memory mode).The The The channel number ßashes if it is unprogrammed, and lights continuously if it is programmed. Ì Use theSelector Knob (2) to select the desired channel number. Í Press theToggle Light / Enter and Parameter Transfer Button (4) again to program the selected memory channel.
