In that case, you can only delete "=" or "_" in the transceiver's edit mode. •• Japanese: The system language of the transceiver is Japanese. Kanji, Hiragana, and Katakana characters, and the 2-bytes symbols can be displayed. To display such characters in the DR screen or Menu mode, set "Display Language" to "Japanese." LLWhen this item is set to "English," "Display Language" is not displayed. When you set the system language of the transceiver to Japanese, the transceiver has the capability to display both English and Japanese characters. HOWEVER, if you select Japanese, all menu items throughout the transceiver system will be displayed in only Japanese characters. There will be no English item names. Unless you are fluent in reading Japanese characters, use this feature with extreme caution. If you have change the transceiver's language to Japanese and do not understand the menu system in the new setting, you will have to change the language back to English by doing a partial reset of the transceiver CPU. A partial reset will not clear your call sign databases. To do a partial reset of the CPU, do the following steps: 1. Push [MENU]. 2. Select "SET." 3. Select the item (with the "etc" icon) shown below. 4. Select the bottom item shown below. 5. Select the upper item shown below. LLDO NOT select the lower item.

Select the upper option. 12-28 •• When the partial reset is completed, "PARTIAL RESET" is displayed, then the display automatically returns to the default screen.
