Subject: ICOM P2AT keyboard mods
There was a recent posting requesting mods to the ICOM P2AT. I received
the following info from Customer Service and they work fine on
my P2AT:
To enable wideband receive and direct keyboard entry of the entire
frequency:
with the HT off, hold down "Light" "B" and "#" keys and
turn the HT on
Get into the set mode and you will have a new option
labeled "PL". Turn the upper right knob to change this to
a value of 100. (The rep at ICOM said "PL" stands for "decimal
placement")
Get out of set mode
You should now be able to enter VFO mode and just press seven digit keys
to enter any freq directly. I don't have mine with me now, but I think
you can enter any freq from 0 to 1GHz.

A "U" on the display means that the PLL is unlocked. Thus, you cannot
transmit or receive on the set frequency.
There is often no real pattern of where the PLL will be locked or not, at
least from my experience with my 2SAT.
Good luck,
