Manually programming the KG-UV6D
Programming is done in three steps:
A) Enter the frequency
B) Save the frequency to a channel
C) Name the channel
Optionally you can set bandwidth, transmit power, receive tone, and transmit tone. These values will remain the same after you change then so you do not have to keep changing them for additional frequencies.
A) Choose your frequency. This is either a single SIMPLEX frequency or the RECEIVE frequency if a repeater will be used:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Switch to VFO mode by pressing MENU and then S/D
2) Select your frequency by entering six digits on the keypad. If required the seventh digit will be automatically added
...OPTIONAL: If necessary change the step:
......1) Press MENU and either use the channel knob to select STEP or press “01” on the keypad.
......2) Press MENU again to edit the value
......3) Use the channel knob to select the value you want (such as 6.25K)
......4) Press MENU again to save the value and it will say “Enter”
...OPTIONAL: Set power (this value will remain the same for additional frequencies so you can skip this step after the first time)
......1) Press MENU and either use the channel knob to select TXP or press “04” on the keypad.
......2) Press MENU again to edit the value
......3) Use the channel knob to select the value you want (choices are HIGH or LOW)
......4) Press MENU again to save the value and it will say “Enter”
...OPTIONAL: Set bandwidth (this value will remain the same for additional frequencies so you can skip this step after the first time)
......1) Press MENU and either use the channel knob to select WN or press “08” on the keypad.
......2) Press MENU again to edit the value
......3) Use the channel knob to select the value you want (choices are WIDE or NARROW)
......4) Press MENU again to save the value
...OPTIONAL: Set receive tone (this value will remain the same for additional frequencies so you can skip this step after the first time)
......1) Press MENU and use the channel knob to select R-CTC (for CTCSS) or R-DCS (for DPL).
......2) Press MENU again to edit the value
......3) Use the channel knob to select the value you want
......4) Press MENU again to save the value
...OPTIONAL: Set transmit tone (this value will remain the same for additional frequencies so you can skip this step after the first time)
......1) Press MENU and use the channel knob to select T-CTC (for CTCSS) or T-DCS (for DPL).
......2) Press MENU again to edit the value
......3) Use the channel knob to select the value you want
......4) Press MENU again to save the value
B) Save to a channel:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For SIMPLEX (not using a repeater):
1) Press MENU and use the channel knob to select MEM-CH
2) Press MENU again to edit the value
3) Use the channel knob to select the channel number that you want
4) Press MENU again to save the value and it should say "receiving memory"
5) Press MENU again to edit the value AGAIN
6) DO NOT change the value--keep it at the frequency that you had for the receive value
7) Press MENU again to save the value and it should say "transmit memory"
For offset frequencies (such as when using a repeater):
1) Press Menu and use the channel knob to select MEM-CH
2) Press Menu again to edit the value
3) Use the channel knob to select the channel number that you want
4) Press Menu again to save the value and it should say "receiving memory"
5) Enter your TRANSMIT frequency using the keypad
6) Press Menu and use the channel knob to select MEM-CH
7) Press Menu again to edit the value
8) DO NOT change the value--keep it at the frequency that you had for the receive value
9) Press Menu again to save the value and it should say "transmit memory"
C) Name the channel (you must be in channel mode to name the channel):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Switch to channel mode by pressing MENU and S/D. It will say “channel mode XX” where XX is the current channel that the radio is on
2) Press Menu and use the channel knob to select CHNAME or press 27 on the keypad
3) Press Menu again to edit the value
4) Use the channel knob to select the value you want:
-- Clockwise selects the alpha-numeric value
-- Counter-clockwise moves you to the next character space
5) Press Menu again to save the name
Notes:
The S/D key will change from single to dual mode on the radio. While in single mode pressing A/B will change which channel or frequency is in use. In dual mode A/B changes which is the transmit channel or frequency.
