a large number of adjustments would ordinarily re-
quire dozens of additional knobs on the front panel
of the transceiver, thus complicating operation hope-
lessly. The Ergonomics Design Team at Yaesu Musen
Co., Ltd. therefore created the Menu System such
that virtually all Menu items are of the “set and for-
get” variety, not requiring revision during day-to-day
operation.
Three Menu operating modes are provided, allowing
different avenues of access to the Menu System.
These are:
H Normal Menu operation (73 selections), ac-
cessed by pressing the [M
ENU] key.
H Panel Menu operation (5 fixed selections), ac-
cessed by holding in the [STEP] key plus one
additional key, providing instant access to criti-
cal Menu items.
H Quick Menu operation (5 user-selected items),
accessed by pressing the [MENU] key after ac-
tivation via Menu Item U-67. When Quick Menu
has been activated, Normal Menu operation is
activated by pressing and holding in the [MENU]
key for ½ second.
Here are operating procedure summaries for each
Menu mode.
