11) Dual watch function [DW]
This function allows you to monitor two channels for signals. Before activating this function
make sure that the squelch is set to ASQ, as described in paragraph 2).
First, select the first channel to be scanned with the rotary channel switch (8) or the Up/Down
keys (2) [p] and (3) [q]. Then, briefly press the dual watch key (12) [DW]. The dual watch
symbol DW flashes in the LCD window. Now, set the second channel to be monitored and
press the dual watch key (12) [DW] again. The dual watch symbol DW will light constantly,
which indicates that the dual watch function is activated.
Make sure that the second push on the dual watch key occurs within 23 seconds after the
first one. Otherwise, the DW function will be aborted, which will be indicated by the extinction
of the flashing dual watch symbol DW in the display.

The MC-8 MarkII is equipped with a 3.5 mm jack socket (17) at the rear panel to connect an
external speaker of 4-8 ohm impedance. At 4 ohms the speaker load can be 4 watts (e.g. TEAM
TS-500). When the external speaker is connected, the internal speaker will be switched off.
13) Signal meter internal/external
An external s-meter can be connected via the 2.5 mm jack socket (18) at the rear panel of
the MC-8 MarkII
Please note that the external S-meter shows only the relative field strength of the incoming
signal.
