Remove the bottom and top covers and remove the front panel cover. You must
then remove the front board by carefully unpluging it try not to touch the lcd
display. On the back of this board which is the "CONTROL UNIT", locate jumpers
1 through 12 and unsolder any that are soldered. All jumpers must be open
(1-12 only). Reinstall the control unit and just turn on the radio for a few
seconds. Now turn it off again and remove the control unit again and solder
jumpers 3, 4, 5 and 11 only. Put everything back together and apply power. The
display will now read 000. Push the MHz button and rotate the main dial until
140.000 is read on the display, then press D/MR once. Now press again the MHZ
button and rotate the main dial to 174.000 and press the D/MR again. The radio
is now programmed to operate from 140 to 174 MHZ.
