Keypad Programming aka Field Programming

Awesome Because:

  • From the keypad of your BK Radio you can enter your TX and RX information, as well as your PL Tone to talk on that channel immediately
  • Useful when you want to talk to any other radio and don't have the channel preprogrammed into your radio.

Field programming must be "ENABLED" on your KNG via pc programming or ordered with that featured enabled. Legacy BK Radios come out of the box with field programming enabled, but require a LAA0701 Programming plug to be connected to the radio to put the radio into field programming mode.
