You can easily increase or decrease the volume by pressing the programmable Volume Up or Volume Down keys. Alternatively, you can set a specific tone volume through the settings menu by navigating to Settings > Tones.
Selecting a Zone and Channel
Your radio is capable of supporting up to 256 channels, which are organized into zones for easier management. The radio supports up to 8 zones, with a maximum of 16 channels per zone.

- Through the Zone List: On the home screen, press the OK/Menu key, use the Up/Down keys to select Zone, and press OK/Menu again. Select your desired zone and confirm.
- Through a Programmable Key: Press the preprogrammed Zone Up or Zone Down key to cycle through the available zones.
How to Select a Channel
