224 BASIC OPERATIONN Setting a tuning stepThe tuning step can be selected for each frequency band.The following tuning steps are available for the IC-E80D.• 5.0 kHz* • 6.25 kHz* • 8.33 kHz† • 9.0 kHz ‡ • 10.0 kHz• 12.5 kHz • 15.0 kHz* • 20.0 kHz • 25.0 kHz • 30.0 kHz• 50.0 kHz • 100.0 kHz • 125.0 kHz • 200.0 kHz* Appears for bands below the 600 MHz only.† Appears for the VHF air band only.‡ Appears for the AM broadcast band only.D Tuning step selectionq Push [V/MHz] to select the VFO mode, if necessary.w Push [BAND] to select the desired frequency band.e Push and hold [TS](2) for 1 sec. to enter tuning step set mode.• While pushing and holding [TS](2), rotating [DIAL] is also se-lectable tuning step.r Rotate [DIAL] to select the desired tuning step.t Push [TS](2) (or [V/MHz]) to return to the VFO mode.[DIAL]5 kHz tuning stepN Setting a frequencyD Using the dialq Push [V/MHz] to select the VFO mode, if necessary.w Select the desired frequency band with [BAND].e Rotate [DIAL] to select the desired frequency.• The frequency changes according to the preset tuningsteps. See the previous content to set the tuning step.• When the VFO mode is selected, push [V/MHz] then rotate[DIAL] to change the frequency in 1 MHz steps, or push[V/MHz] again then rotate [DIAL] to change the frequencyin 10 MHz steps. Push [V/MHz] again to cancel it.)[DIAL][DIAL] changes the frequencyaccording to the selected tuningstep.After pushing [V/MHz] on VFOmode, [DIAL] changes thefrequency in 1 MHz/10 MHz steps.
