• Tune to a channel with activity on it or press the TEST button. This will unsquelch the radio, allowing you to
hear the current volume level.
• Rotate the OUTER VOLUME knob clockwise to increase the volume level, or counterclockwise to decrease the
volume level.
Selecting a Preset Channel Using the Cursor/Value Knob
When the C-5000 first powers on, the selected channels will be reset to those that were active when the unit was
powered down. To select a different preset channel, do one of the following:
• Move the cursor under the least significant digit of the channel number you want to change. The illustration
below shows a user preparing to change the channel for radio 1.

• Turn the VALUE knob clockwise to select the next available channel with a higher number. Turn the VALUE
knob counterclockwise to select the next available channel with a lower number. Keep turning the VALUE
knob until the desired channel is selected.
You can also increment the channel number by 10’s and 100’s. You do this by placing the cursor under the 10’s or
100’s digit and turning the VALUE knob as described above. The following illustration depicts the cursor under the
10’s digit. The 100’s digit would be one to the left of the 10’s digit.

Selecting a Channel Using the Keypad
Occasionally, it is desirable to select a preset channel by entering its number via the keypad, rather than dialing it in
with the cursor/value knobs. This can be performed as follows.
• Place the cursor under any digit of the channel number you want to change.
• Press the NUM button. The following illustration depicts the display after the NUM button has been pressed
while radio 1 was under cursor control.
