Programming Tips
• Group similar services into a bank. For example, program police frequencies in channels 1
through 10 and fire/emergency into channels 51 through 60, and so on.
• Put the frequency that you listen to the most or the most important frequency into a
Priority channel.
• To quickly program a series of channels, start with the lowest number channel.
For example, when you are programming five new frequencies into channels 4 through
8, start with channel 4. After you finish programming a channel, rotate the
VFO
up or
press
▲
to go to the next higher channel.
• Write down your programmed channels and frequencies and put them in a convenient
place in case of accidental reprogramming.
• Frequencies are rounded off according to the step of each channel.
• When you are overwriting a tagged channel with a new frequency, the previous alpha tag
will be deleted. Re-register the alpha tag.
• When programming frequencies, a 2 second delay is set automatically but can be
changed in the menu mode.
