MENU SETUP

WHAT IS A MENU?

1
Many functions on this transceiver are selected or
configured via a software-controlled Menu instead of
physical controls on the transceiver. Once familiar with
the Menu system, you will appreciate the versatility it
2
offers. No longer is the number and complexity of
features restricted by the physical controls and
switches on the front panel.

MENU A/ MENU B

The transceiver has two menus. These menus are
called Menu A and Menu B. The menus contain
4
identical functions; however, each menu can be
configured independently.
For example, you may enjoy two different kinds of
operating activities but you like to configure the
5
transceiver differently for each activity. Menu A could
be configured with one set of transmit signal
characteristics, DSP settings, programmable buttons,
frequency steps, etc. Menu B could be configured
6
completely differently. By switching from Menu A to
Menu B, you could instantly change Menu
configuration and button assignment to suit your
current operating style. Or, two operators may share a
7
single transceiver. By dedicating one Menu per
operator, each would always enjoy the best
configuration.
Note: The COM communication parameter setting in Menu No. 35
8
is shared by Menu A and Menu B.
