Your HTX-242 has a menu that lets you select how some functions work.  The
previous sections included procedures that access this menu-this section
provides an overview.  Follow these steps to use the menu:

1.  VFO.

2.  Hold F for at least 1 second.  FUNC flashes.

3.  Press MR.  The first menu item appears.  Then press UP ARROW or DOWN
    ARROW to select the desired menu option.

4.  Rotate TUNE, or press UP or DOWN on the microphone, to select the
    setting.  For options that require a frequency (such as scan skip),
    you can use the microphone keypad to directly enter the frequency's
    last five digits.

5.  Press MR or PTT to save the settings.
