To activate the APO feature:
1.
Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to
select "1 APO."
2.
Press the [MHz(SET)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired
"switch-off" time or OFF.
3.
Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to save the new setting and
exit to normal operation.
Busy Channel Lock-Out (BCLO)
The BCLO feature prevents the radio's transmitter from being activated if a signal
strong enough to break through the "noise" squelch is present. On a frequency where
stations using different CTCSS or DCS codes may be active, BCLO prevents you from
disrupting their communications accidentally (because your radio may be muted by its
own Tone Decoder). The default setting for the BCLO is OFF, and here is how to change
that setting:
1.
Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to
select "5 BCLO."
2.
Press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this Set Mode
Item.
3.
Rotate the DIAL knob to set this Set Mode Item to "ON" (thus activating the
BCLO feature).
4.
When you have made your selection, press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one
second to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
Remember that BCLO is controlled by the Noise Squelch; if you have DCS or TSQ
engaged, BCLO will inhibit transmission if a station is on frequency but not
transmitting the proper tone; BCLO will thus prevent you from interfering with the
other station's transmission.
Programming the Key Assignments
