The scanning stops when [UP]/[DWN] button is released.ON: When [UP]/[DWN] button is held for about 1.0second, the scanning continues even after thebutton is released.MY BANDFunction: Setting of the my bandAvailable Values: ON/OFFDefault: ONThe “My Bands” feature allows you to select severalAmateur bands, and make only those bands avail-able for selection via the [BAND]/[BAND] but-tons.ON: Only the bands that are turned on will be shownwhen pushing the [BAND]/[BAND] button.OFF: A Band that is turned off will not appear whenthe [BAND]/[BAND] button is pushed.NOTE:The band presently in use and the General band can-not be turned off.MY MODEFunction: Setting of my modeAvailable Values: ON/OFFDefault: ONThe “My Mode” feature allows you to select an oper-ating mode, and set whether or not the mode will bedisplayed or skipped when the [MODE]/ [MODE]buttons are pressed.This feature can be very useful in HF operation, whenthe AM/FM/DATA modes are not used.ON: Only the mode registered by turning on can beselected by pushing [MODE]/ [MODE]button.OFF: A mode that is turned off will not be appearwhen pressing the [MODE]/ [MODE] but-ton.NOTE:The mode displayed on the display while setting “Mymode” cannot be turned off.P M-DWN (MIC-DWN PG)Function: One of 52 functions can be preset andassigned to the [DWN] key of the microphone.Available Values: Please see page 16.Default: DOWNPresets of various functions can be assigned to the[DWN] key of the microphone using this option.P M-FST (MIC-FAST PG)Function: One of 52 functions can be preset andassigned to the [FST] key of the microphone.Available Values: Please see page 16.Default: FASTPresets of various functions can be assigned to the[FAST] key of the microphone using this option.MENU M ODE
