Let’s first dial up the radio frequency
• Move the EDIT switch to the LEFT this time
• We’ll call this the EDIT CHannel selection
• The DISPlay switch now shows what it is that you’re
changing - The name display, transmit frequency, receive

RX
• We’ll start with the DISPlay switch in the <center>
• We learned that the DISPlay switch in the (RX) position
shows the Receive frequency
• It’s the same with programming: You’re programming
whatever the DISPlay is set to show at the time

• Being as the DISPlay now shows the RX display, we’ll
begin programming the Receive frequency
• The NEXT switch chooses the digit to be edited
• The SELECT switch makes the number change

• After each digit is SELECTed, go to the NEXT one and
keep going until the whole frequency is entered
• Then, go NEXT even further over to the right, and enter
the CTCSS tone as needed.
• That’s it for the Receive frequency

• Now that we have an RX frequency, we’ll do the exact
same thing for the Transmit side of the formula
• Change the DISPlay switch to the right, to the TX setting
• Duplicate the frequency and tone which was put into the
RX side (unless the circumstance directs otherwise)

The next step is to assign the
Identification, Channel Bandwidth and Scan List inclusion
• This step changes items seen in the ID screen, so we
need to switch the DISPlay to ID to make these changes
• Again, use the NEXT switch to choose which space to
edit, and then SELECT the letter, numeral, symbol needed

W SC
• The next choice is for Wide or Narrow FM channel width
• For the time being, we’ll assume all field entries will be in
Wide Band format, as used by our other radios at present
• Select whether this channel is to be put on the Scan List
for later use in channel scanning
