Dear Gary,

Please give me your own email as I hate to keep clogging up the List =
with our private conversation.=20

Your instructions sound pretty good except that as you face the front of =
the radio, the buttons you describe are on the left.=20

I can mess up the radio as the meter does not work so a sighted person =
cannot set freqs and PL for me. And I don=E2=80=99t know how to do that =
myself.=20

Thus, I don=E2=80=99t want to take a chance and take all the freqs and =
PLs out that are set in the radio now.=20

Hi Bob,
It is a place to start.  The buttons on the right side of the radio are: =

Top left, Call button, this can be set to any frequency that you wish.  =
This=20
could be for a greatly used frequency or the calling frequency of =
146.520 or=20
the 70cm frequency of 446.000.  The next button below is the VFO, which =
will=20
let you establish a frequency.  When held in when turning on the radio, =
this=20
starts to do a parcell reset. After you select this procedure, you need =
to=20
push one of the button between the main tuning knob and the volume =
control.=20
This confirms your selection.  The next below is the memory button.This=20
recalls any frequency that you have committed to a memory channel.  When =

held in when turning on the radio does a full reset.  This also asks for =
you=20
to select a button between the main tuning knob and the volume control.  =
As=20
I stated earlier, the main tuning knob when held in will put the radio =
in=20
Demo mode or take it out of Demo mode.  You cant mess it up!  Gary =

Thanks Gary. But how sure are you of this?

I seem to remember holding down either the VFO or memory buttons which =
=3D
are above the main tuning dial and just below a button which I think has =
=3D
something to do with priority channel.=3D20

They are on the very left of the front of the radio as you are looking =
=3D
at it.=3D20

Subject: Question About TMV7A

I have a TMV7 A. Be aware that it is not the TMV7 1A, just the A.

It seems to be jammed. No matter which button or knob I hit, it =3D
sound=3D3D3D
s a
high pitch tone.

I know there is a way to do a soft reset and a hard reset.

I do not want to do a hard reset as =3D3D
I=3D3D3DC3=3D3D3DA2=3D3D3DE2=3D3D3D82=3D3D3DAC=3D3D3DE2=3D3D3D84=3D3D3DA2=
d lose a=3D3D3D
ll programming.

Does anyone know how to do a soft reset?

I know you hold down either VFO or memory and turn radio off. One =3D
doe=3D3D3D
s the
hard reset and the other does the soft reset.
