BW(2G(17)/7/13): 4MHz, 3MHz
5.4.2 Channel Bandwidth and Band Plan
In this section you can set your “pre-Nextel” and “post-Nextel” Video Bandwidth Deviation, so that
when you make the switchover they will be ready to go.
Start this set-up procedure by making the following menu selections:
MENU>Settings>Options>Nextel
This brings up the screen at right, with the settings and
selections as described below:
2 GHz Freq Plan This setting controls the 2 GHz Frequency Plan which will be
used by the radio. Select the 17 MHz “pre-Nextel” band-plan by
choosing “2G(17)”, or the 12 MHz “post-Nextel” band-plan by
choosing “2G(12)”.
BW(2G(17)(7/13) This setting controls your Video Deviation bandwidth when
operating in the “pre-Nextel” 2 GHz band (USA), and also for all
the other frequency bands (i.e. 7 GHz or 13 GHz). The possible
selections are 3 MHz or 4 MHz.
BW(2G(12) 8-10) This setting controls the Video Deviation bandwidth when
operating in the “post-Nextel” 2 GHz band (USA) on channels 8
through 10. The possible selections are 3 MHz or 4 MHz.
NOTE: Due to bandwidth limitations of the “post-Nextel” 2 GHz band-plan, in “2G(12)” mode, the
Video Deviation bandwidth of 2 GHz channels 1 through 7 is locked at 3 MHz..
5.4.3 Switchover to “Post-Nextel” Settings
For our US clients, when your DMA switchover date arrives, assuming you have already set the unit
per the preceding guidelines, you will only need to take the following steps to put the radio on the
new “post-Nextel” settings:
Step #1: Navigate to the following menu: Settings>Options>Nextel
Step #2: Change your “2 GHz Freq Plan” setting from “2G(17)” to “2G(12)”
Step #3: Done!
