Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Most guides to this transceiver were written against a firmware versionthat no longer exists. This one tells you how to keep up.

This radio launched to enormous anticipation and a difficult first few months.Firmware has been fixing it ever since - and at least one update has beenreported to break something that previously worked. Menus have moved. Advice hasaged. A guide that ignores all that is worse than useless.

Twelve chapters take you from unboxing to confident diagnosis, written for newlicensees and for experienced operators who want the specifics for this radio inone place instead of scattered across forum threads.

Inside this beginner's guide you will learn how to:

- Set the radio up from the box, including the charging specification thatcatches almost every new owner in week one- Read the spectrum scope and waterfall to find signals instead of tuningblindly, and adjust them so weak signals actually appear- Get real distance from six watts by fixing the antenna first, and understandwhat a tuner can and cannot do for you- Program repeaters correctly, including the tone setting that leaves a radioaccessing perfectly while appearing completely deaf- Run digital modes and CW, where low power reaches furthest, and fix the clockerror behind most silent digital stations- Update firmware without bricking the radio, and judge whether a given updateis worth installing yet- Tell a setting from a fault from a firmware bug, in that order, every time- Operate portable for a full day, with a power plan that survives real transmitduty rather than the published duty cycle

What makes this different

It does not quote menu numbers, because they have changed between firmwareversions and a fixed number would make this book wrong for half its readers. Itnames the group and the setting instead, and explains how to find anything.

Twelve chapters with reference tables, a symptom-by-symptom diagnosis guide, astation record and firmware diary, and colour-coded panels throughout -step-by-step procedures, menu paths, operator reports, specifications, cautions, beginner traps, and a checklist closing every chapter.

Keep it with the radio, not on a shelf.
