PRC1099A-MSOP 4-3
Setting Channels and Frequencies
The PRC1099A stores up to 100 different frequencies in channel numbers
00 to 99. Each of the channel positions on the front panel is capable of
displaying any one of the 100 channels stored in memory. The transceiver
utilizes 100 channels and can display 10 channels at a time. All channels can
be used in the scanning mode or with other options.
Setting
Channels
1. Turn the CHANNEL knob to the position desired to store the channel.
2. Toggle the TUNE knob and select a channel number (00 to 99) for storing
the frequency. You can enter any frequency into any channel and have
any channel displayed at any Channel position.
3. Press and hold the WHIP TUNE button for two seconds to save or store this
channel into memory.
Setting
Frequencies
1. Once you have saved the channel number, toggle the DIGIT knob up to dis-
play the selected channel’s frequency. Use the TUNE knob to scroll
through the 8 digits. Stop when you have reached a digit to change.
2. Toggle the TUNE knob to change a digit. Toggle the DIGIT knob to move to
the next digit to change.
3. To save the frequency, press and momentarily hold the WHIP TUNE button.
To operate in half-duplex, enter the transmit frequency using the procedure
described above. The receive frequency is entered the same way except
without pressing WHIP TUNE. When the transceiver is keyed, the radio changes
to the transmit frequency. Unkeyed, the radio reverts to the receive frequency.
Fine tune the receiver by incrementing the last digit using the TUNE knob (do
not press Whip Tune). The receiver frequency offset is deleted from memory
when you select a new channel.
Memory Dump To erase the frequencies in all 100 channels:
1. Hold the
DIGIT knob down and hold the TUNE knob up.
2. Turn the radio off and on. This enters test frequencies in channel 00 to 09
and 2 MHz in channels 10 to 99.
