microphone to tune the antenna coupler. If channel
programming is required, it is necessary to activate the
program mode.
With the FREQ / CHAN button in CHAN, use a
pencil or other pointed object to push the PGM button
in. The letters PGM will appear in the lower part of the
display window and the system will remain in the
program mode until the PGM button is pressed again.
Switch is alternate action: push-on, push-off.
(a) Receive Only.
1. Stow the cursor if a frequency
digit is flashing.
2. Channel Select.
3. Mode Set (LSB, USB, or AM).
4. Frequency Set as desired.
Refer to frequency tuning.
5. Push and release STO button
once.
TX will flash in the display window. A receive
only frequency is being set, the flashing TX should be
ignored.
If another channel is to be set, the cursor must
be stowed before a new channel can be selected. Use
the smaller concentric knob to select the channel and
repeat the steps for selecting a new frequency.
6. To return to an operating mode,
push the PGM button.
(b) Simplex. Setting a channel up for
simplex operation (receive and transmit on the same
frequency).
1. FREQ / CHAN Button In (Cursor
stowed).
2. PGM
Button
In
(PGM
displayed).
3. Channel Select.
4. Mode Set (LSB, USB or AM).
5. Frequency Set as desired.
Refer to frequency tuning.
6. STO button Push and release
twice.
The first press of the STO button stores the
frequency in the receive position and the second press
stores the same frequency in the transmit position.
The second push also stores the cursor.
If another channel is to be reset, use the smaller
concentric knob to select the channel and repeat the
steps for selecting a new frequency. The cursor was
automatically stowed. To return to one of the
operating modes, push the PGM button again.
(c) Semi-Duplex. Setting a channel for
semi-duplex (transmit on one frequency and receive
on another).
1. Channel Select.
2. Frequency Set as desired.
Refer to frequency selection.
3. Mode Set (USB, or AM).
4. STO button Push once.

COMMUNICATIONS
TRANSCEIVERS
(VHF-22D).
a. Introduction.
The
VHF
communications
transceivers are an 8.33 kHz channel spacing cable
system. The operation between the 25.00 kHz and
8.33 kHz modes is seamless. Within the space
occupied by each 25.00 kHz frequency exist three
8.33 kHz channels. The 8.33 kHz "frequency" is
referred to as a "channel," not the actual frequency
tuned. The channel scheme avoids possible confusion
associated with shared 25.00 kHz and 8.33 kHz
frequencies. This method ensures that the equipment
will always be operating in the proper spacing mode
and occurs automatically as the user tunes the
