How To Use Your Transceiver - PRESIDENT RONALD Manual Del Usuario

- Put the switch on the SWR meter to position FWD (calibration).
- Press the PTT switch (10) to transmit.
- Bring the index needle to t 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, re-adjust
your antenna to obtain a reading as close as possible to 1 (an SWR reading
between 1 and 1.8 is acceptable).
- It will be necessary to re-calibrate the SWR meter after each adjustment of
the antenna.
You can check at any time the SWR reading using the SWR function. See
page 24.
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 3 m / 118,11".
Your transceiver is now ready for use.

the same knob anti-clockwise to reduce the sound level.
2) ASC (Automatic Squelch Control) ~ SQUELCH
Suppresses
undesirable background noises when there is no communication.
Squelch does not affect neither sound nor transmission power, but allows a
considerable improvement in listening comfort.
a) ASC: AUTOMATIC SQUELCH CONTROL
Worldwide patent, a PRESIDENT exclusivity.
Turn the SQ knob (2) anti-clockwise into ASC position.
No repetitive manual adjustment and a permanent improvement between
the sensitivity and the listening comfort when ASC is active. This function can
be disconnected by turning the switch clockwise. In this case the squelch
adjustment becomes manual again.
b) MANUAL SQUELCH
Turn the SQ knob (2) clockwise to the exact point where all background
