13.1 BAND PROGRAMMING


    Band programming is done in BCD to indicate the band switch setting through the SETBAND indicator. If this is not programmed, the unit will not transmit. If pin 10 is not made high, the unit will not transmit.

        Band Range  BA    BB    BC    BD
        ==========  ==    ==    ==    ==
        1.5 - 2.0           -     x       -        -
          2 - 3               x     x       -        -
          3 - 4.5            -      -       x       -
         4.5 - 7             x     -       x       -
          7 - 10             -     x       x       -
         10 - 15            x     x      x       -
         15 - 22            -      -       -       x
         22 - 30            x     -       -       x

    The band range pins BA to BD correspond to the previous 14 pin chart. This programming sets the band switch data/SETBAND light. If this is not programmed, the unit will receive, but it will not transmit, even if pin 10 is high.
