TO LOCATE AN UNRESPONSIVE OPERATOR USING THE EAI FEATURE

1. Recall the Memory Channel “EAI” (must be the same as the

searched person’s radio), which is found in the next to the

last “regular” memory channel.

2. Set the CTCSS tone pair to the same CTCSS tone pair stored

in the Receiving Pager Code Memory of the missing person’s radio.

1) Press the f key, then press the 2 key. This pro-

vides a “Short-cut” to Set Mode Item 63: PAGE CODE-

TX.

2) Rotate the DIAL knob to select the first tone.

3) Press the M key.

4) Rotate the DIAL knob to select the second tone.

5) Press the 2 key to save the new setting and exit from

setting mode.

3. Press and hold in the PTT switch for five seconds. If the EAI signal is received by a

VX-8GR/GE transceiver programmed with matching EAI CTCSS tones, the EAI

feature will activate. The lost operator’s radio will transmit a load (0.5 second) beep

every 2.5 seconds until the EAI timer expires. You may now begin direction-finding

efforts.

4. The ATT (Front End Attenuator) is often helpful in locating

the missing person’s radio, as peaks in weaker signals are

more easily observed. You may select the ATT level “ATT 1

(10 dB),” “ATT 2 (50 dB),” and “ATT OFF” by pressing the

B key to reduce the signal.

5. Press the c key to exit to normal operation.
