SELECTING FREQUENCIES
■ Tuning Control
Using the Tuning control is convenient when you are
within easy reach of the transceiver front panel, and the
frequencies to be selected lie near the current
frequency.
1 Press [VFO] to select VFO mode.
2 Turn the Tuning control to select a receive
frequency.
• Clockwise rotation increases the frequency one
frequency step at a time.
• Counterclockwise rotation decreases the frequency
one step at a time.
• To change frequencies in steps of 1 MHz, press [MHz]
first. Pressing [MHz] again cancels the 1 MHz
function. To change in steps of 10 MHz, press
[F]
+ [MHz] first. Pressing
[F]
cancels the 10 MHz
function; pressing [MHz] starts the 1 MHz function.
• If you cannot select a particular receive frequency, the
frequency step size needs to be changed. See
"CHANGING FREQUENCY STEP SIZE" {page 65} for
further information.
• You can also select frequencies via the microphone
keypad (MC-53DM only). See "KEYPAD DIRECT
ENTRY" {page 74}.
■ Microphone [UP]/[DWN] Buttons
Using Mic [UP]/[DWN] for frequency selection is useful
when mobiling or any time you are not immediately in
front of the transceiver.
Press [UP] or [DWN] once to change the receive
frequency by one frequency step in the direction
indicated by the button.
• Pressing and holding either button causes the frequency
to step repeatedly in one direction until the button is
released.
• To change frequencies in steps of 1 MHz (or 10 MHz),
press [MHz] (or
[F]
+ [MHz]) first.
