NSTALLING HANNEL TOPS
To simplify operation and prevent selection of unprogrammed/unused chan-
nels or channel groups, tiny metal inserts or "stops" can be inserted into
the top panel beneath the CH selector knob. A tiny tab protruding from
beneath the skirt of the CH knob engages the stop(s) as it is turned, pre-
venting further rotation.
To insert a stop, rotate the CH knob to the channel "1" position and use the
Allen wrench to loosen the setscrew locate the CH knob, then pull off the
CH knob. Insert the stops firmly into the appropriate slot(s) for the desired
channels, using a pair of tweezers or fine needle-nose pliers, according to
the drawing below. For example, to limit CH selection to channels 1 - 4,
insert one metal stop at the 9 o'clock position (slot), and the other at the 6
o'clock position. When done, press the CH selector knob back on the shaft,
align the indicator of the CH knob to channel "1," then tighten the set-
screw.
Note: The use of mechanical stops should not be used or relied upon as the
sole means to prevent selection or transmission on an invalid or unautho-
rized channel. Channels should be locked-out or TX-inhibited via pro-
gramming by your Yaesu dealer, and stops inserted as a operating conve-
nience to you and your network users.
