BEEP FUNCTION
The Beep function provides you confirmation of entry,
error status, and malfunctions of the transceiver.
Although you can turn the beep function OFF by
accessing Menu No. 03, 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. 03 and selecting
“1” to “9”.
The transceiver generates the following Morse code

Since the frequencies above 52.0 MHz have not
been configured, they will be USB mode
52.0 MHz
f < 60.0 MHz
