Advice
When the "TRV" mode is turned on, power output will
not be allowed to pass to the [ANT1] ~ [ANT4] main an-
tenna jacks. So one of these may be connected to your
transverter's "RX" jack. Just be certain to disconnect the
transverter when returning to HF operation, as the selected
Antenna jack will now be capable of passing RF power.

The "100 MHz" digit of the frequency is not displayed,
so when you are operating on 2 meters and see "45
MHz" on the frequency readout, this indicates "145
MHz" instead.
Advice
With the setup described above, tuning the operating
range 28-29 MHz will correspond to an actual operat-
ing frequency of 144-145 MHz, with "44-45" being dis-
played on the front panel of the transceiver.
