CHANGING FREQUENCY STEP SIZE
Choosing the correct step size is essential in order to
select your exact frequency using the Tuning control or
Mic [UP]/ [DWN]. The default step size is 5 kHz on the
144 MHz band and 25 kHz on the 440 MHz band.
The default on the 118, 220, or 300 MHz band is 12.5
kHz and the default on the 1.2 GHz band is 25 kHz.
1 Press the left or right [BAND SEL] to select band A
or B.
If necessary, press [F], then the same [BAND SEL] to
recall the sub-band.
2 Press [VFO].
3 Press [F], [STEP].
The current step size appears and blinks.

The selectable step sizes are 5, 6.25, 10, 12.5, 15, 20,
25, 30, 50, and 100 kHz.
5 Press [OK] to complete the setting.
Note: Changing between step sizes may correct the displayed
frequency. For example, if 144.995 MHz is displayed with a 5 kHz
step size selected, changing to a 12.5 kHz step size corrects the
displayed frequency to 144.9875 MHz.
PROGRAMMABLE VFO
If you always check frequencies within a certain range, set
upper and lower limits for frequencies that are selectable
using the Tuning control or Mic [UP]/ [DWN]. For

145.000 MHz to 146.995 MHz.
