CHANGING FREQUENCY STEP SIZE

Choosing the correct step size is essential in order to
1
select your exact receive frequency using the Tuning
2
control or [UP]/ [DWN]. The default step size on the
VHF band is 5 kHz (TH-D7A) or 12.5 kHz (TH-D7E).
3
The default on the UHF band is 25 kHz no matter which
4
market version.

frequency. For example, if 144.995 MHz is displayed with a 5 kHz step
23
size selected, changing to a 12.5 kHz step size corrects the displayed
frequency to 144.9875 MHz.

If you always check frequencies within a certain range,
set upper and lower limits for frequencies that are
selectable using the Tuning control or [UP]/ [DWN]. For
example, if you select 145 MHz for the lower limit and
146 MHz for the upper limit, the tunable range will be
from 145.000 MHz to 146.995 MHz.

• If necessary, press [F], [A/B] to recall the sub-band.
2 Press [VFO].
3 Press [F], [7] to select "F–7 (PROGRAM VFO)".
• The current lower frequency limit blinks.
4 Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select the desired lower
frequency limit.
5 Press [OK].
• The current upper frequency limit blinks.
6 Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select the desired upper
frequency limit.
