1. Select the desired mode (International or USA) by pressing the [INT] key. Each time the key is pressed,
the mode changes to INT or USA, and "INT" or "USA" appears on the LCD.

disappears).
Transmit at low power for short range communications or when in harbor areas, to minimize interference
to others.

USA: 13*, 17, 67*, 77
* Channels 13 and 67 can be switched to high power (25 W) if [1/25]/DIM key is pressed while [PTT]
switch is on.
Transceiver is designed not to transmit on US channel 15.
