(a) Active

The

concentric knobs when either time mode (FLT or ET)
is being displayed. To set the 10’s digit, push the
small knob in and rotate it. Clockwise rotation will
increment the digit. The digit will roll over at 9 to 0 and
roll under (when turning the knob counterclockwise) at
0 to 9. With the small knob pulled out, the 1's digit
may be set. Its operation is the same as for the 10's
digit.
Turning the large knob changes the l00's digit
and the 1000's digit. The 100's digit carries to the
1000's digit from 9 to 10 and borrows from 10 to 9.
The two digits roll over from 17 to 02 and under from
02 to 17, limiting the frequencies to the range or
200 kHz to 1799 kHz.
(b) Standby Frequency. The standby
frequency is displayed in the right portion of the
display window when the FRQ message is displayed.
In this case, the standby frequency may be changed
with the frequency control knobs as desired. If the
standby frequency is not being displayed, it may be
called to the window by pressing the FRQ button.
Pressing this button when the standby frequency is
displayed causes the current standby and active
frequencies to be exchanged.
(5) OFF / VOL Control Switch. Rotating this
control switch clockwise out of detent turns the unit on.
Further rotation of the control switch increases volume.

the elapsed time. Time is reset back to zero each time
the button is pressed. The elapsed times have a
countdown mode, which is set by pressing the SET /
RST button for 2 seconds or until the ET display
begins to flash. With the ET flashing, the selector
knob will set any time up to 59 minutes, 59 seconds.
To start the elapsed time count down, press the SET /
RST button and the timer will start counting down. At
zero, the timer will begin to flash for 15 seconds and
then go to a solid display. While the FLT or ET is
displayed, the in use frequency may be changed with
the frequency control knobs.
