I think though 1 is s-9 and mode or frequency and mode which is what I had mine set for. Next, you can look for the setdial item, again with sited help and set the select knob, when pressed, to access the tx power out adjustment. This function works when your not in 1 of the DSP selections, in other words when you in normal mode. Also look up the FT-450 Yahoo users group. They were very helpful to me to start and that's where I got the setdial option.
