The transceiver is always tuned to the

frequency appearing in the ACTIVE dis-

play. It is therefore possible to have two

different frequencies stored in the

ACTIVE and STANDBY displays and to

change back and forth between them at

the simple push of the transfer button.

During the transmit mode of opera-

tion, a "T" will appear between the

ACTIVE and STANDBY displays. An "R"

will appear between the ACTIVE and

STANDBY displays if a detected signal is

strong enough to open the squelch, signi-

fying that the transceiver is in the receive

mode of operation.

A non-volatile memory stores the

comm ACTIVE and STANDBY frequen-

cies on power down. When the unit is

turned on again, the COMM ACTIVE and

STANDBY windows will display the same

ACTIVE and STANDBY frequencies that

were displayed before power down.

The KX 155A and KX 165A also have

provisions to program 32 channels.

Pressing the CHAN button for 2 or more

seconds will cause the unit to enter the

channel program mode. Upon entering

the channel program mode, "PG" is dis-

played next to the channel number and

the channel number will flash indicating

that it can be programmed (Figure 5).

The desired channel can be selected

by turning the comm kHz knob (Figure 6).

The channel frequency can be entered by

pushing the COMM TRANSFER button

which will cause the standby frequency to

flash. The comm frequency knobs are

then used to enter the desired frequency

(Figure 7). If dashes (displayed when

rotating the outer knob between 136 MHz

and 118 MHz) are entered instead of a fre-

quency, the corresponding channel is

skipped in channel selection mode (Figure

8). Additional channels may be pro-

grammed by pressing the COMM TRANS-

FER button and using the same proce-

dure. To exit the program mode and save

the channel information, momentarily push

the CHAN button. This will cause the unit

to return to the previous frequency entry
