Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing this excellent Alinco transceiver. Our products are ranked among the
nest in the world. This radio has been manufactured with state of the art technology and it has been tested
carefully at our factory. It is designed to operate to your satisfaction for many years under normal use.
Please read this manual completely from the rst page to the last, to learn all the functions the
product offers. It is important to note that some of the operations may be explained in relation
to information in previous chapters. By reading just one part of the manual, you may risk not
understanding the complete explanation of the function.
Before transmitting
There are many radio stations operating in to the frequency ranges this product covers. Be careful not to
cause interference when transmitting around such radio stations.
■
Lightning
Any person is not safe outdoor during thunderstorm and lightning. This condition is getting worse if
somebody keeps a hand-held radio; chances of being hit by lightning are doubled since lightning may
hit a radio antenna as well. At this time, there is no hand-held radio having any kind of protection against
lightning current (which is higher than10 kA.). Note also that no car provides adequate protection of its
passengers or drivers against lightning as well. Therefore, Alinco will not take responsibility for any danger
associated with using its hand-held radios outdoor or inside the car during lightning.
■
About IP54 rating / Dust and splash resistant
About IP54 rating
5: Dust protected / Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, but it must not enter in sufcient quantity to
interfere with the satisfactory operation of the equipment; complete protection against contact.
4: Splashing water / Water splashing against the enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effect.
Test duration: 5 minutes / Water volume: 10 litters per minute / Pressure: 80~100 kN/m²
The IP54 designation provides for limited dust and splash proong of the radio per specied above. This
compatibility is factory guaranteed for a period of one year provided all the jack covers are securely in
place, any accessories connected must be specied genuine Alinco accessories and the radio has not
been disassembled by the customer. The factory has tested and made the equipment compatible to IP54
certication during engineering. However, please understand that this equipment is NOT certied IP54
compliant but is designed to remain operational when used in hard conditions and is in no way stating
that you should attempt to wash the radio for cleaning. Warranty will not cover radios that are water/dust
damage due to negligence or misuse of the product.
The warranty period of dust and splash resistance is the same as the period of the product warranty.
■
Covering ranges
You may expect a range of approx.3km/2 miles or more at high-power when located on a at, noise-free
place like on a beach. However, it may vary drastically depending on how to wear and carry the radios,
surrounding locations/conditions and static noise levels (below or near power transmission lines), etc.. In
urban areas with many buildings or inside a building, such covering range will become drastically short
even to several tens of meters.
■ Output power selectable 4W/2W/0.5W
■ 128 PC-programmable channels
■ Li-Ion battery pack and stand-charger as standard accessories
■ Alphanumeric name tags
■ FM broadcasting 76-108MHz receiver built-in
■ Selectable Battery-save parameters
■ Busy Channel Lockout
■ Voice Compander (Reduce Noise & enhance audio clarity)
■ Inversion Scramble(Analog encryption)
■ Sub-tone (CTCSS/DCS) Encode/Decode and DTMF/ANI
■ VOX built-in
■ Voice prompt in English, Emergency Kill/Stun/Waken, Alarm signal, Various scan
modes, Key lock, Wide/Narrow operations and more at NO extra costs.

key to switch between Channel mode and VFO.
A.Memory mode/Freq.+channel display: At this mode, when set display as
"
FREQ
", it enters into Frequency + Channel mode. Once the radio is turned
off or switched to another channel, the temporary setting will be erased and
back to initial settings. (As pic 1)
B.Memory mode/Name tag+channel number display: When set display as
"
NAME
", it will display corresponding channel name when the current channel
is edited with name in advance. Otherwise, it will display frequency and
channel number. Its operations are the same as frequency + channel mode.
(As pic 2)
C.VFO Mode（Frequency mode): This mode shows only frequency on the
display. Set mode operation and Channel setting are stored as the latest
value. Once the radio is turned off or changed to new frequency using VFO,
the value remains until next change. (As pic 3)

3.Commercial radio Mode:
When set display mode as "CH", it enters into Commercial radio mode. At this
mode, except scanning, talk around/frequency reverse, DTMF encode or editing,
BEEP on/off and keypad lock, all other functions should be set by PC software
in advance to the operation (As pic 4). If name tag is programmed, the LCD will
display current channel and name tag. (As pic 5)
(Pic 4)
