6) Modulation selection [ Mode ]
The MX8 Mark-I can operate in AM or in FM modulation. However, the version MX8 Mark-I c (EC
CEPT) and the norm EC of the the version MX8 Mark-I EU Multi Norm operate in FM only .
If the unit accepts also the modulation type AM on the actual channel, you can toggle it by pres-
sing the key ( 7 ) [ Mode ] between the modulation types AM and FM. The selected AM mode
will be indicated by the symbol "AM". If the unit does not accept the modulation type AM on the
actual channel, you will only hear a receipt tone, but it remains on the modulation type FM.
If the unit is set to AM on the actual channel, and you select another channel, on which the
AM mode is inhibited, the modulation changes automatically to FM mode. If you select once
more another channel, on which the
automatically to back to AM mode.
With the version MX8 Mark-I EU Multi Norm in the norm UK, you can toggle between the EU
band and the UK band, which is indicated by symbol "EU" or "UK", by pressing the key ( 7 )
[ Mode ]. The CB band EU consist s of the 40 CEPT channels. The CB band UK consist s of
40 channels starting from 27.60125 MHz to 27.99125 MHz.
After switching it off, the unit stores the last channel of the actual band and also of that band,
which is actually not in use, as long as the power source remains connected.

8) Transmitting
To transmit, depress and hold the key ( 4 ) [ PTT ] on the microphone ( 1 ). On the LCD, the
symbol "TX" appears, and the bar meter at the bottom of the display shows the relative trans-
mit signal strength. For best quality , speak normally at a dist ance of 2 - 4 inches. S peaking
too loudly will cause distortions and make the signal dif ficult to underst and. While the set is
in the transmit mode there is no key entry possible and the receiver is muted. On completion
of the transmission release the PTT key ( 4 ) and the set will revert to receiving mode.
9) Call tone
If you press the transmit key ( 4 ) [ PTT ] and the call key ( 5 ) [ SIGNAL ] on the microphone
( 1 ) at the same time, a call tone will be transmitted and can be heard only by the p artner sta-
tion, provided it is switched on the same channel and the same modulation type.
10) Priority Channel 9 / 19 [ CH9/19 ]
The MX8 Mark-I cont ains the priority channels 9 and 19. Priority channel 9 is selected by pres-
sing the key ( 14 ) [ CH9/19 ] once. To set priority channel 19, press the key ( 14 ) [ CH9/19 ]
twice. When a priority channel is set, the channel and the frequency will blink in the display and
all function keys including the rot ary channel selector are disabled. Only transmission and acti-
vation of the VOX function are possible. To return to the previous channel, press the key ( 14 )
[ CH9/19 ] once, if priority channel 9 has been selected, or twice, if priority channel 19 has been
set. Once returned to regular mode, all functions will be enabled again.
11) Channel scanning [ SC / KL ]
If this function is active, the unit looks for occupied channels. As this function does not work with
open squelch, set the squelch control ( 8 ) [ SQ / Asq ] according to p aragraph "2" before acti-
vating the scan function.
Press the scan key ( 8 ) [ Scan ] briefly to start the channel scan. Now the channels are step-
ping upwards and the scan symbol "SC" appears on the LCD screen. The scan function stops
on the next channel on which a signal opens the squelch. It is terminated at this moment,
which is indicated by the extinction of the scan symbol " SC".
To stop scanning, press the scan key ( 8 ) [ Scan ] once again. Scanning also be stopped by
pressing the channel selector ( 2, 3 ) or PTT (4) key, or by turning the rot ary channel selec-
tor ( 9 ). Then, the scan symbol "SC" will disappear from the display , and the actual channel
will be that one, on which the channel number was just st anding at the moment of deactiva-
tion of the scan function.
12) Dual watch function [ DW / B ]
This function allows you to montitor two channels concurrently. Before activating this function
make sure that the squelch is closed on free channels.
First select the first survey channel by means of the rot
Up/Down keys ( 2 ) [  ] and ( 3 ) [  ]. Then, press briefly the key ( 13 ) [ DW / B ]. The dual
watch symbol "DW" flashes in the LCD window.
Now, set the second channel to be monitored and press the dual watch key ( 13 ) [ DW / B ]
again. The dual watch symbol DW will light constantly, which means that means that the dual
watch function is finally activated now.
