EXTERNAL SPEAKER CONFIGURATION This transceiver has two speaker jacks for external speakers, as well as an internal speaker. You can enjoy a variety of speaker configurations by using one or two external speakers. Received signals on bands A and B are output depending on how you want the internal and/or external speakers to function. 1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 002. PROGRAMMABLE VFO If you always check frequencies within a certain range, you can set upper and lower limits for frequencies that are selectable. For example, if you select 144 MHz for the lower limit and 145 MHz for the upper limit, the tunable range will be from 144.000 MHz to 145.995 MHz. 1 Select your desired VFO frequency. 2 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 100. (Example: E type) 2 Set the speaker mode to MODE 1 or MODE 2. • Refer to the table below for configurations based on the mode selected.

Note: You cannot program the 100 kHz and subsequent digits. The exact 100 kHz and subsequent digits of the upper limit depend on the frequency step size you are using. CHANGING THE FREQUENCY STEP SIZE Choosing the correct frequency step size is essential in selecting your exact frequency. The default step size on the 144 MHz band is 5 kHz (TM-D710GA) or 12.5 kHz (TM-D710GE). The default on the 430/440 MHz band is 25 kHz. 1 Press the left or right [BAND SEL] to select band A or B, then press [VFO]. 2 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 101. 3 Set the step size to 5.0*, 6.25*, or 8.33 kHz (118 MHz band only) or to 10.0, 12.5, 15.0*, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 50.0, or 100.0 kHz. * These step sizes are not available for the 1200 MHz band. Note: Changing between step sizes may correct the displayed frequency. For example, if 144.995 MHz is displayed with a 5 kHz step size selected, changing to a 12.5 kHz step size corrects the displayed frequency to 144.9875 MHz. OTHER OP-2
