VX-8GR/GE OPERATING MANUAL 17
FREQUENCY NAVIGATION
The VX-8GR/GE will initially be operating in the “VFO” mode, as just described. This is a
frequency step system which allows free tuning throughout the currently-selected operating
band.
Three basic frequency navigation methods are available on the VX-8GR/GE:
1
)
TUNING DIAL
Rotation of the DIAL knob allows tuning in the pre-pro-
grammed steps established for the current operating band.
Clockwise rotation of the DIAL knob causes the VX-8GR/
GE to be tuned toward a higher frequency, while counter-
clockwise rotation will lower the operating frequency.
If you press the f key briefly, then rotate the DIAL knob,
frequency steps of 1 MHz will be selected. This feature is
extremely useful for making rapid frequency excursions over the wide tuning range of the
VX-8GR/GE.

DIRECT KEYPAD FREQUENCY ENTRY
The desired operating frequency may be entered directly from the keypad.
The operating mode will automatically be set once the new frequency is entered via the
keypad.
To enter a frequency from the keypad, just press the numbered digits on the keypad in the
proper sequence. There is no “Decimal point” key on the VX-8GR/GE. However, there is a
short-cut for frequencies ending in zero - press the c key after the last non-zero digit.
Examples:
To enter 145.520 MHz, press 1

operation is activated, the “Sub” band “Frequency Con-
trol” icon will blink. After completing control of the
“Sub” band, press the key followed by the key
to return control to the “Main” band.
