- Press the PTT "push-to-talk" switch (13) on the microphone to transmit.
- Bring the index needle to  by using the calibration key.
- Change the switch to position REF (reading of the SWR level). The reading on
the Meter should be as near as possible to 1. If this is not the case, readjust
your antenna to obtain a reading as close as possible to 1. (A SWR reading
between 1 and 1.8 is acceptable).
- It will be necessary to recalibrate the SWR meter after each adjustment of
the antenna.
WARNING: In order to avoid any losses and attenuations in cables used for
connection between the radio and its accessories, PRESIDENT recommends
to use a cable with a length inferior to 118.11" / 3 m.
Your transceiver is now ready for use.
