Switching Power On/Off and adjusting the audio volume level
1. With a fully charged battery, connect the antenna to the top of the radio’s antenna jack.
2. Rotate the POWER/VOL knob clockwise to turn on the radio. A power up alert will be heard
and the current DC supply voltage will be indicated. After about 2 seconds, the display will
resume normal operation and display the current operating frequency.
3. To increase/decrease the audio volume level, rotate the POWER/VOL knob.
4. To power down the radio, rotate the POWER/VOL knob fully counter clockwise until clicked
and the display goes dark.
After powering up, for its first use, the radio defaults to VFO operating mode and the default
receive (RX) frequency is displayed for both 2m and 70cm. Once the radio has been used, it will
power up to the mode it was in prior to being turned off.
Keypad Overview:
The BCH-270 has a 16 button keypad for operating the radio. From the keypad, you will be able to
program the radio for how you want it to operate.
CHAPTER 4: QUICK START – GET ME ON THE AIR!
When the radio is powered on for the first time, it will display the measured battery voltage and
emit a power on alert. The powered on alert will be followed by the voice message: “Power On.”
On the top line of the radio display will be the 2m RX frequency (GROUP A) and the bottom line will
display the 70cm RX frequency (GROUP B).
CHAPTER 5: Basic Operation
„
RX
1. Upon power up, the radio defaults to a pre-programmed or default RX Frequency.
2. When radio is receiving a valid call, the speaker un-mutes and the green LED lights.
3. Certain conditions may be required for the radio to un-mute and receive. For example,
proper CTCSS/DCS signal decode might be required in order for the radio to un-mute. In
addition, the receiving signal must be strong enough to break the squelch (SQL) setting.
4. CTCSS/DCS signaling is a special squelch protocol and can help to ignore unwanted calls on
the channel. CTCSS/DCS is programmed on a per channel basis. To communicate using
CTCSS/DCS, other radios must have the same signaling in their radios.
Working Modes
