Entering a frequency using the numeric keypad
Example of frequency entry 145.800 MHz
Press [1] [4] [5] [.] [8] [ENT]
There is no need to key in the trailing zeros to the
right of the decimal point as they are automatically
added by the microprocessor.
If keying in a whole MHz such as 118.000 MHz there
is no need to key in either the decimal point or
trailing zeros, they are all added by the AR8000
microprocessor.
Example of "MHz round number" frequency entry for 118.000 MHz
Press [1] [1] [8] [ENT]
While keying in frequency data, the fourth line of the LCD displays "FREQ
SET" to indicate what sort of data input the receiver is expecting. Similar
helpful messages are displayed at other times during data input.
If for some reason you do not wish to complete the frequency data input, press
[CLEAR] before completing the input sequence with [ENT].
If an attempt is made to enter an out of range or
invalid frequency (such as 1929 MHz or 0.09 MHz)
the second line of the LCD momentarily displays the
error message "FREQ ERROR" then returns to the
previous frequency prior to frequency input.
Note: If the keypad or [DIAL] is not operated for 90
seconds while inputting data through a selection
menu, the operation will time out and the receiver
will return to its previous task just as if the [CLEAR] key had been pressed.
Example of frequency entry 954 kHz (0.954 MHz)
Press [.] [9] [5] [4] [ENT]
The frequency of 954 kHz is equivalent to 0.954 MHz.
When entering frequencies below 1 MHz, there is no
need to proceed the decimal point with a zero as this
is added by the microprocessor during frequency
entry then removed when the [ENT] key is pressed to
ensure the display appears neat and tidy.
You will note that frequencies below 1.6 MHz (1600
kHz) will not have a decimal point displayed to the
