back ground noise, and some reception interference.
Press once to activate the function. «NB/ANL» appears in the display. To

: calibration of the SWR meter.

Position «SWR» : reading of the SWR value.
See «Adjustment of SWR meter», page 7, § 5.
To use these functions, press the METER key successively in transmission mode.
In reception mode this key locks itself onto position «S/RF».
16)BEEP:
When you finish speaking and you release the «push-to-talk» switch to allow
your correspondent to speak, a «beep» sounds. Radio CB is what is known as
a «simplex» method of communication, that is to say, that you cannot listen
and speak at the same time (as you can, for example, with the telephone).
It was custom to say «roger» to indicate to your correspondent that you’d
finished speaking and that it was his turn to talk. The word «roger» has now
been replaced with a beep, hence its name, «Roger Beep».
By depressing this key once, the roger beep is activated as well as the
sounding of all the keys and the word BEEP appears in the display. To cancel
out the beep, depress the same key. The sound level of the beep can be
adjusted by using the VOLUME knob.
17)PA (Public Address):
An external loud speaker can be connected to your PRESIDENT GEORGE by
the jack plug situated on the back panel PA.SP (
E
). By pressing the PA key, the
message transmitted into the microphone will be directed towards the
external speaker and be amplified. PA appears in the display and everything
else disappears. Hold the microphone far enough away from this loud
speaker so as to avoid the Larsen effect.
The PA volume is regulated by the MIC GAIN knob. To cancel PA, press the
«PA» key and the set returns to the previous configuration.
18)ECHO:
Use of the echo chamber. This function gives a reverberation (echo) effect to
your voice. The level of echo can be adjusted. Ask your dealer to carry out this
adjustment for you. You can check level of echo either by using the PA
function and connecting a loud speaker, or by carrying out a trial transmission
with a correspondent.
To activate this function press the PA key once. «ECHO» appears in the display.
To cancel it simply press the same key. «ECHO» disappears from the display.
19)SELECT:
The "SELECT" key allows you to go up or down by 10 channels at a time. It is
used in conjunction with the «CH
▲
» and «CH
▼
» or with the rotary channel
knob.
Example:
Configuration You are in channel 22 FM.
- Press «SELECT» :
Underlining appears in order to indicate Channel 22 FM.
