Press your function key and there's a key at the centre of both the band
select buttons, it's a tiny switch and if you press it, it goes from vhf, to
uhf, uhf, to vhf, and vhf, to vhf, uhf, and uhf. The feed back in to uhf is
probably just harmonics. Certain two meter frequencies do that
unfortunately. I would just turn down the uhf side but you expressed that
you wish to run both modes so I don't really have an answer. Personally I
use one or the other because I find if both modes are running it's
distracting. When I visit my good friend uptown on Fridays, he has two three
things playing at once. I don't know how he keeps up with it all but it's
totally distracting for me.

Subject: TMV7A question


Hi, all.

I may have asked this question before, but seem unable to find any notes
from the list, so please forgive if I ask this again.

Does anyone know how to get the TMV7A to transmit on 2 meters, and
simultaneously mute the 440 side of the rig?  My son, who is also a ham,
lives in Kalamazoo, Mi, where the best way to get into a wide-coverage link
system is to transmit on 2 meters, and listen to the output on 440.  When I
try doing this with the TMV7A when in Kalamazoo, I get feedback through the
440 side, and the only way I can correct the problem is to turn down the
volume on the 440 side whenever I transmit.  That, of course, is somewhat of
a pain.

Any help with this would be appreciated.  I just have to believe that it's
possible to configure the radio to mute the 440 side when transmitting on
2-meters.

I know this is automatically done with the THF6A, but then again, the THF6A
only has one volume control.
