![]() ![]() ![]() To tell if you are on the A or B channel or frequency, there is an up triangle to the left of the A frequency or a down triangle to the left of the B frequency as shown below to indicate which has been selected. In Channel Mode only, you will see the respective memory channel number to the far right of the A and B frequency displays. Most of the time you will be using the Channel Mode which has the preset frequencies programmed into your set of 127 memory channels. Press the orange VFO/MR button to switch between the two. When you first turn it on with the volume control on the top, "China Girl" will say Frequency Mode or Channel Mode. If at any time you think you have pushed the wrong buttons, etc., don't panic, just turn the radio off for a few seconds and then back on. Forget your new call letters? Your call letters and first name have been programmed by me into your radio to show in the display for about 2 seconds after turn on. Let me know if there are any other frequencies you want added in. You can bring the HT to me and I will program it for you with the most common or used frequencies and give you a printed list to refer to. ![]() A full charge should last you more than 8 hours depending on how long and often you transmit. Don't worry about leaving it in the charger too long, the charger LED will go from red to green when it goes into trickle charge mode. When you receive your handy talkie (HT) radio, plug it into the charger for at least 4 hours to make sure it is fully charged before turning it on for the first time, and before anytime you know you will be using it.
