&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Most people agree that the manual that comes with this radio is horrible. Let&#039;s try to create a better one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Modes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hold U/V to switch between manual tuning and preset mode. In channel preset mode there are two small numbers on the right. In manual tuning mode the numbers are not there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hold Menu and press the Mon button on the side to switch to the FM receive-only mode. In this mode you can also switch between manual and channel preset mode using the above instructions and storing a new channel works the same.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Saving a preset ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You cannot load an existing preset, make a change and save it. You have to set all of the parameters and then save it as is. So, make sure you get it right or you&#039;ll have to go through the whole process for the preset again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Make sure you&#039;re in manual tuning mode. There should &#039;&#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039;&#039; be two small numbers on the right indicating the channel number. Hold U/V to switch if you&#039;re in preset mode. If you are in manual mode some of these menus will not be available or you will be unable to change the menu option.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Set the frequency by entering the numbers on the keypad or scanning with up and down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Set the scrambler no with Menu #6. Remember using this is illegal for HAM operators. You may be allowed to use this if you have the proper authorization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Set the squelch tone for transmit and receive with C-CDC at menu #27. Press Menu, up until you&#039;re on #27, press Menu, press * once for CTCSS, press * again if you want DCS, press up and down to select the code, press menu to make your selection, press U/V to go back to menu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Set the squelch tone for transmit only with R-CDC at menu #28 using the same instructions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Set the squelch tone for receive only with T-CDC at menu #29 using the same instructions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Set the offset at menu 25. Generally .6 MHz for VHF and 5MHz for UHF.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. Set the offset direction with S-D at menu 30.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. Press Menu, U/V, the channel number will flash, press up and down to choose the channel, press U/V to save.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. Once saved it will switch to preset mode. If you wish to program another preset hold U/V to switch back to manual tuning mode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Deleting a preset ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Turn the radio off.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Hold U/V and turn the radio on. The display says DEL?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Press up/down to select a channel. Press MENU to delete the channel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. When you&#039;re done deleting turn the radio off and on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Menu ==&lt;br /&gt;
To enter the menu press the menu key. In the menu the Menu key is enter, the up and down arrow keys navigate and change options, the U/V button cancels or goes backwards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Scan:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hold * Lock for 2 seconds to lock and unlock. The call button will still function while it&#039;s locked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hold # T-R to make the receive and transmit frequencies swap. When this is active a R is shown at the top of the display.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Links ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apparently the PX-777 works much the same way as this radio and also has a terrible manual. There is a better english manual for that radio here: http://nv.mara.net/maradownload5&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
