Advanced Operation

Now that you've mastered the basics of VX-5R operation, let's learn more
about some of the really neat features. . .
S
ETTING THE
VFO Mode
The VX-5R's display may be configured so that only VFO-
A is displayed, or (alternatively) it may be set for display
(in smaller characters) of the Main (A or B) and Sub VFOs.
As a third option, The Main VFO (only) may be displayed
in small characters.
If the display currently shows the operating frequency in
large characters (see the illustration), press and hold in
the [ 1 ( TN ) FRQ ] key for one second to change the dis-
play to indication of both the Main and Sub VFOs. Press
and hold in the [ 1 ( TN ) FRQ ] key for one second again to
make the Sub VFO frequency disappear.
If the display currently shows the operating frequency in
small characters, (displaying one or both VFO frequen-
cies), press and hold in the [ 4 ( MG ) DSP ] key for one sec-
ond to cause the display to double the size of the Main
VFO frequency. The Sub VFO frequency will disappear.
If you again press and hold in the [ 4 ( MG ) DSP ] key for one second, the LCD will revert to
small-character display of the operating frequency; one or both VFOs will be shown, de-
pending on how the display was set up per the preceding paragraph.
Memory Mode
When operating in the Memory mode (see page 42), press-
ing the [ 4 ( MG ) DSP ] key for one second causes the LCD
to "toggle" between display of the current memory's fre-
quency only (large characters) or the current memory's
frequency on the top line and the memory channel num-
ber on the second line.
