Introduction

Power Source
The radio is designed for 13.8 V ±20% negative-ground operation and may be connected to a
standard 12 V battery.
CW Keying Operation
When the CW key is pressed, the radio transmits a continuous wave (at the full programmed power)
and stops transmission when the key is released. CW keying operation is enabled by connecting a
Morse key to the accessories connector. If you wish to operate CW keying with external headphones,
the S809 Interface cable can be used, thus enabling a standard PL55 headphone and standard PL99
Morse key to be connected to the accessories connector.
Programmable Features
The radio can be programmed using a PC running the MICOM Radio Control Application (MRC) or
the Radio Service Software (RSS). The following radio features can be programmed:
• Up to 200 simplex/half duplex channels supporting SSB (J3E), AME (H3E), or Pilot (R3E) modes.
• Up to four levels of output power (up to 125W PEP and average).
• Five scanning groups of up to 200 channels, each with guard channel.
