Synopsis

New expanded edition!

It’s happened to everyone who’s been in ham radio for a while: you’re at an event, class or exercise and a handheld radio’s not programmed right.

Maybe you’re having trouble with your HT, or more likely a new ham has come up to you and said, “I can’t figure out what’s wrong.” This guide’s plain language and clear pictures show you how to set up a radio using the radio keypad alone—without programming cables or additional software.

For over 85 radios (30% more than the first edition), you’ll get instructions to:

• Set frequency
• Set repeater offset and direction
• Set squelch tones
• Set power levels
• Write to a memory
• Select a memory
• Lock and unlock the radio
• Adjust volume and squelch
• Reset the radio to defaults
• Resolve common problems

If you deal with different kinds of handheld ham radios, you need this book!
