I Selecting Output Power - Icom IC-V8000 Instruction Manual

I Selecting output power

The transceiver has 4* output power levels to suit your oper-
ating requirements. Low output powers during short-distance
communications may reduce the possibility of interference to
other stations and will reduce current consumption.
*The Thailand and Taiwan versions have only 2 levels.
Push [LOW(DUP)] several times to select the output power.
