The transceiver has two power modes: hi and low power. Low power is one watt and is achieved by pressing the low power button down.

The internal memory is backed up with an internal lithium battery. When the display says ER1, the battery needs replacing. To clear the internal settings, hold down F + CLR and turn on the power. ER1 is an internal memory error.
