Functions
The programmable switch on the top panel can be
configured using the menu to provide several func-
tions:
• Power - turns the power on and off
• Mute - mutes the audio when switched on
• TalkBk (talkback) - redirects the audio to a differ-
ent output channel on the receiver (with receivers
that offer this function)
• (none) - disables the switch

Main Window Indicators
The Main Window displays the band number, Stand-
by or Operating mode, operating frequency, audio
level, battery status and programmable switch func-
tion. When the frequency step size is set at 100 kHz,
the LCD will look like the following.

Changing the step size never changes the frequency.
It only changes the way the user interface works.
If the frequency is set to a fractional increment
between even 100 kHz steps and the step size is
changed to 100 kHz, the hex code will be replaced by
two asterisks on the main screen and the frequency
screen.
