The opening screen on the TFT will be gray, and some
text notes advising status during the boot-up sequence
may appear. When the radio is turned on for the first
time, it takes about 50 seconds (from turning the ra-

becomes ready to use; however, from the next time
you turn it on, it will take around 10 seconds until the
transceiver is ready for full operation.
