SelecTing A Zone And chAnnel
Select the desired zone using the GRP and keys. Each zone contains a
group of channels.
Select the desired channel using the CH control. Each channel is programmed
with settings for transmitting and receiving.
• If programmed by your dealer, the transceiver will announce the zone and channel
numbers as you change them.
Names can be programmed for zones and personalities. Your dealer can set the
zone name to a length of 0 to 14 digits. To fit on the display, personality names
will shorten appropriately. (KCH-14 models display only 12 digits). For example,
if the channel name is “–CHANNEL1–” and the zone name is “Kenwood”, and
your dealer sets the zone name to 4-digits, the following display will appear:
KCH-14 (12-digit display): KENW–CHANNEL
KCH-15 (14-digit display): KENW–CHANNEL1–
