Regency RH-606 programming instructions. 3/11/99 sjc
Programming:
1. Open top of radio and locate the microprocessor (40 pin IC).
Approximately 1/2 inch in front of microprocessor is a cut jumper labeled J-401.
2. Short J-401 and turn the radio on.
Note: I soldered thin wires to this jumper and put a small normally open
momentary push button switch through the side of the case near the rear so
I can reporgram it later without re-opening the case. Just push switch
while turning the radio on and...
3. Press the "PROG/PRI" key then the "10" key. The display will go blank.
Programming note: Use the "10" key any time you need to enter a 0.
Simplex:
1. Enter the 6 digit frequency followed by 00 ("10" key twice).
2. Enter the 2 digit CTCSS code (affects both TX and RX).
3. Press the "Enter" key, then the channel number.
4. In a few seconds the display will flash then go blank.
5. Repeat for the next desired channel if necessary.
