[UP] or
[DOWN], the frequency changes in this selected
tuning step.
The set tuning step is also used for a VFO scan.
• Select 5, 10, 12.5, 15.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0 or 50.0. (in kHz)
Reverse Duplex
Selects “ON” when reversing

Output Power
Selects the default output
power of each channel.
• Select L1 (Low1: 1 W), L2 (Low2: 2 W) or H (High: 5.5 W).
TIP: Lower output power during short-range communica-
tions may reduce the possibility of interference to
other stations.
Bandwidth
Sets the bandwidth (channel
spacing).
• Select N (Narrow: 12.5 kHz) or W (Wide: 25 kHz).
