MENU SETUP
WHAT IS A MENU?
Many functions on this transceiver are selected or
configured via a software-controlled Menu, rather
than through the physical controls of the transceiver.
Once familiar with the Menu system, you will
appreciate the versatility it offers.
You can customize
the various timings, settings, and programming
functions on this transceiver to meet your needs
without using many controls and switches.
MENU A/ MENU B
This transceiver has two menus:
Menu A and
Menu B.
These menus contain identical functions
and can be configured independently.
The
transceiver, therefore, allows you to switch between
two different environments quickly and easily.
For
example, you can configure Menu A for DXing and
contesting while Menu B is for the relaxed local
ragchewing.
By switching from Menu A to Menu B,
you can instantly change the Menu configuration and
key assignment to suit your current operating style.
Or, two operators may share a single transceiver by
dedicating one Menu to each operator.
Both
operators can always enjoy their own configuration.
