BEEP FUNCTION
The Beep function provides you confi rmation of entry,
error status, and malfunctions of the transceiver.
Although you can turn the beep function OFF by
accessing Menu No. 05, we recommend you leave
it ON in order to detect unexpected errors and
malfunctions. You can also change the output level of
the beeps by accessing Menu No. 05 and selecting “1”
to “20”.
The transceiver generates the following Morse code
to tell you which mode is selected when you change
operating modes:

The frequencies for channels 27 ~ 31 have not
been confi gured, but because they are the same
frequency as channel 26, they will be FM mode
51.0 MHz f < 52.0 MHz.
Since the frequencies above 52.0 MHz have not
been confi gured, they will be USB mode
52.0 MHz f < 60.0 MHz
