Backlighting On/Off (6)
This button will illuminate the channel selec-
tion window for a period of ten seconds. The
window will re-illuminate for a further ten sec-
onds if a key is subsequently pressed, thus pre-
serving battery life. Pressing this button again
will switch the backlighting off.
Channel Selection Knob (7)
This is a sixteen-position rotary switch used to

The channel selected is shown in the channel
selection window next to the knob, with each

channel 16) is indicated by a long beep. NB,
although there are sixteen channel locations,
not all of these may have a channel pro-
grammed into them.
