VX-8GR/GE OPERATING MANUAL16
OPERATION
SELECTING THE FREQUENCY BAND
The VX-8GR/GE covers an incredibly wide frequency range, over which a number of
different operating modes are used. Therefore, the VX-8GR/GEs frequency coverage
has been divided into different operating bands. Each band has its own preset channel
steps and operating modes. You can change the channel steps and operating modes later, if
you like (see page 24).
TO CHANGE OPERATING BANDS
1. Press the B key repeatedly. You will see the LCD indication change to a higher
frequency band each time you press the B key. A Band Number according to the
receiving frequency is also displayed.
2. If you wish to move the operating band selection downward (toward lower frequen-
cies), press the f key first, then press the B key.
3. The VX-8GR/GE uses a dual VFO system (described
previously). To switch TX/RX operation from the
“VFO-A” to the “VFO-B” instantly, press the b key
briefly. Pressing the a key will return TX/RX op-
eration to “VFO-A”. The frequency band shown in
Large” characters is the band on which transmission
is possible; the band shown in “Small” characters may
only be used for reception.
4. Once you have selected the desired band, you may initiate manual tuning (or scan-
ning). See the discussions on the next page.
If desired, you may omit (skip) one or more bands from the band selection
loop for faster recall of your favorite operating bands. See page 119 for de-
tails.
