Icom R-2 question - anyone got experience?
On my R2, when I press the Band button, after it hits the bands, I get "CH1"
which goes up to CH59 These seem to be pre-programmed. Some seem to be FM broadcast, some are locked out. These are NOT channels that I programmed, and this is NOT the "channel scan" mode. I can not seem to find ANY refenence to these. They do not appear in software, and the button combos have no effect when these are on screen, there is also a strange letter combo on the lower right of the screen, looks like a "tw". Anyone know what these are, can they be changed? How can some be "skipped" if I can't seem to get any access to them?? Anyone? |

I believe those are pr-programed TV audio chanels.

Aren't the TV channels pretty much international - with the exception of
some of the UHF ones maybe? Matt "Bruce Markowitz" wrote in message ... Which since it is a Euro model are probably not correct for "here". This is not documented at all in the manual!
