- [Voiceover] Hey everybody, we're back
doing some hand programming here.
And now we are in the truck and we are going to
hand program the Bendix-King mobile radio.
This one happens to be a digital radio,
but they're pretty much all the same.
So let's get started.
So first thing, we'll jump to our
communication plan here and take a look at it.
And taking a look at it
we're gonna program on channel three,
and we're name that channel three "Tac Three".
And the transmit and receive frequency is gonna be
168600, and the transmit and receive tone are
gonna be 110.9.
So let's go ahead and get started,
and before we get going we'll see what's on
channel three now for the display.
So there's three, SOA RPTR.
I'm gonna change that just because somebody's using it.
So let's start programming.
So, what we do to go into program mode on the mobile
radio is you're gonna hold down the function button
up there on the top right corner,
and the squelch button.
And it's a little bit of a timing thing,
otherwise you if you hold down the function button
you're gonna lock the keypad.
And just pull the back to unlock it.
So at the same time,
you punch 'em both and it wants your ID.
Again, it's six zeros.
(beeping)
Press enter, and you're in.
So now it says "channel 00",
if we wanted to program channel ten you press one zero,
but again for this, from our commal plan we're gonna
program channel three.
So you punch zero three on the keypad.
And there you go.
Zero three, and again that
N there indicates you're on narrow band.
So I'm gonna press function to scroll through
to get to my receive frequency,
and we wanna get that cleared out.
So you press clear, now we're gonna enter 168600
on the keypad.
(beeping)
Got it in our display.
Press enter.
And then we scroll through a window pressing function.
That brings us up to our receive tone.
And for this one we've got a receive tone of 1109.
You gotta clear it.
Punch in your tone,
and then follow it up with enter.
Now we're gonna press function two times.
Get to our transmit frequency.
Press clear to clear it out,
and then we'll punch it in on the keypad 1686.
Press enter for it to take.
And then scroll through I think one window
to get to the transmit tone.
Clear it out.
Punch in your 1109
for our transmit tone.
Press enter.
Now we gotta scroll through a few screens here
on the mobile to get to our
display channel name.
(beeping)
So I'm hitting function.
And again, at the start it was named SOA RPTR,
but now we're gonna clear it
and we wanna name it Tac Three.
So we cleared it, and now we're gonna hit priority
to scroll through our numbers, letters, then symbols.
So punch in priority.
(beeping)
And then you wanna press function to move it over.
(beeping)
Press function to move it.
(beeping)
And as you scroll through, if you pass your symbol
or number that you're looking for, you either clear it
and start over, or just scroll through the whole set
of letters, numbers, symbols.
Okay now I wanna move it two spots over.
So I press function two times to give me a space,
and do my Tac Three.
Move it over once or twice to make it pretty.
Press enter.
So now, a good habit is to just scroll through and make
sure everything took.
So there's my receive, 1686.
There was my 1109 tone that flashed by.
And my 168600 transmit frequency,
and my 1109 transmit tone.
And my channel name.
So again we'll
turn it on and off.
And we'll go to our channel three.
Channel one, two, three,
and it's named Tac Three.
So today we did the frequency and the display,
now we're gonna do our priority one and two.
So again we'll hold our function
and squelch button to go into program mode.
Six zeros for the ID.
(beeping)
We're at our channel zero zero,
if we wanna do channel four we press 04,
but we're gonna go deeper into program mode
using the function button scrolling through.
So function until we come to priority one.
Okay so it's currently set to channel one.
So if we wanted to change it we would press clear,
and our options are either off, on,
or numerical channel.
And for this instance I want it set to channel three.
So I would punch 03 on the keypad,
and press enter.
When I press enter it'll punch us to priority two,
and for priority two our settings are either off or on,
so if it was set to off
I would press clear.
Priority to turn it on and then press enter.
And we wanna make sure those took again,
so you just scroll through til you come back
to priority one.
(beeping)
And that's channel three which took.
And priority two is one.
So we are done programming, so there you have it
for programming the Bendix-King mobile radio.
The display, the frequencies,
and your priorities.
