Use Frequency Memory
Frequently used frequencies or channels can be saved and retrieved including the corresponding mode by
pressing
MSAVE/MLOAD
(10) in 5 station memories. The settings are not erased during temporary power failure,
as the unit works with low power backup technology.
Enter Frequency
Set the desired frequency. Press the buttons
FUNC + MSAVE +
station memory
(1-5)
in sequence to save the
frequency.
The display shows an “
S
” for
“SAVE”
after pressing FUNC + MSAVE.
Retrieve Frequency
Press
MLOAD
and the station memory (1-5) to access saved station memories (the display shows an “L” for “Load
memory” after pressing MLOAD).
CALL (Channel 9, International CB Call and Emergency Channel)
Station memory 2 is especially easy to access by briefly pressing
2 (CALL)
. As a conformation for this preference
channel the display flashes as long as the channel is selected. To leave the CALL channel briefly press
2 (CALL)
again. The last used channel is displayed again.
Tip:
During receiving breaks switch to channel 9 and help with your standby operation to keep this channel open
for emergency calls! Do not talk too long on channel 9. Agree on a different channel soon after finding a radio
partner.
Scan Mode
Scanning allows you searching the band beginning with the last frequency or channel. In does not matter if the last
frequency was a station memory. After finding a signal in scan mode this channel is monitored for maximum 8
seconds, unless the signal disappears earlier. In this case scanning starts again until the next signal is detected.
Start and Stop Scanning
Press the
SCAN (9)
button; scanning starts. You can stop scanning by either pressing the
PTT
button or pressing
the SCAN button again.
Important: Scan mode uses the squelch setting as switching criteria. Set squelch first to the value for the scanner
to stop at a used channel. Scanning is not possible with open squelch: This state is detected by the CPU as a used
channel and it switches in 8-seconds cycle to the next channel.
Reverse Scanning Direction
You can change the scanning direction from up to down or vice versa at any time. Briefly turn the channel selector
in the desired direction or use the
UP
and
DOWN
buttons on the microphone.
Last Channel Recall (LCR)
If you were scanning or listening a lot to other frequencies you may want to return to your last transmission channel
by pressing a single button? Press the LCR (6) button to return to the last channel you used for transmission for
more than 3 seconds.
Noise Blanker
A noise blanker is a circuit to fade out or limit temporarily pulsating interferences. As the CB band is especially
effected by noise from electrical appliances and vehicles your unit is equipped with a corresponding function to be
engaged in AM and SSB modes.
The noise blanker is activated/deactivated by pressing
FUNC
and
NB
(5).
