preprogrammed marine channels in one of the 3 chan-
nel groups; The VFO mode is used to select frequen-
cies around preprogrammed channels.

VFO modes.
• "FREQ" appears when in the VFO mode.
• In the VFO mode, only simplex operation is possible.

groups of 50 channels, maximum. However, the num-
ber of channels in each group can be restricted in the
set mode, depending on your needs. (pgs. 13 and 14)
