' ' Setting the group code

The IC-40Jr is equipped with 38 group codes. Group mode opera-
tion provides communication with silent standby since you will only
receive calls from group members using the same group number.
First of all, set the same group code number for all group member's
transceivers.
To turn ON the group mode operation:
q Push [MODE] to enter set mode.
• Operating channel number disappears
and " -–– " (group mode OFF) appears in
the display.
w Push [UP/Y] or [DOWN/Z] to select the
desired code number.
e Push [MODE] to set the group code num-
ber.
To cancel the group mode operation:
q Push [MODE] to enter set mode.
• Operating channel number disappears
from the display.
w Push [UP/Y] or [DOWN/Z] to select " - –– "
(group mode OFF).
e Push [MODE] to cancel the group mode.
IMPORTANT!: Before transmitting, make sure the channel you
will operate with the group mode is clear by pushing [MODE] for
1 sec., to prevent interference to other stations.
NOTE: Only stations with the same group channel number can
be heard during group mode operation, even when the busy in-
dicator appears in the display.
