Quick Split Operation
The Quick Split feature allows you to set a one-touch offset of +5 kHz to be applied to your radio’s transmit frequency
on the VFO-B, compared to the VFO-A frequency.
1. Press the
MNU key (# ) to enter the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob (# ) to se-
lect Menu item “GENERAL 032 QUICK SPLIT
FREQ.”
3. Rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob (# ) to select
the desired offset.
The available selections are
-20kHz ~ 0kHz ~ +20kHz (factory default: +5 kHz).
4. When you have completed all adjustments, press
and hold in the MNU key for two seconds to
save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
If you only press the MNU key momentarily to
exit, any changes you performed will not be stored.

2. Press and hold in the SPLIT switch (# ) for
two seconds to engage the Quick Split feature, and
apply a frequency 5 kHz above the VFO-A fre-
quency to the VFO-B frequency register.
Press and hold in the SPLIT switch for two sec-
onds to increment the VFO-A frequency to +5 kHz.
The VFO configuration will then be:

will be the same as that in use on the VFO-A regis-
ter.
The offset of the VFO-B from the VFO-A is pro-
grammed via the Menu, and is set to +5 kHz at the
factory. Other offsets may be selected, however,
using the following procedure:
CLAR/VFO-B knob
