Does anyone know where I can get an operators manual or copy for a Standard C508A Mini Ham HT? All or any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Selected Functions of STANDARD C508A Transceiver
TO USE VFO MODE:
Push V/M. Confirmed by frequency numbers only (no channel number or C) in display.
BAND cycles through 4 ranges: 100-200 MHz (108-141.995 normally AM, other FM); 300-400; 400-520; & 700-900 MHz. Transmits 144 - 147.95 MHz & 438 - 449.995 MHz.
Repeater offset (simplex/+/-) & offset frequency are SET functions as shown below.
Tune VFO using Dial (knob on case top). To tune in 1 MHz steps, hold in F & tune Dial.
Squelch adjusted in SET. To override, push MONI (if in Repeatr Mode also reverses freq).
To scan a 1 MHz range, push SC. To scan band, hold in F & push SC. SC stops scanning.
Use Dial to change direction of scan.

In VFO Mode, select the desired frequency, offset, & tones.
Hold in F & push V/M. Use Dial to select memory channel (00-59).
Again Hold in F & push V/M to enter frequency & return to VFO Mode.
To program repeater offset, frequency, & tone, select channel & use SET Mode.
To erase a memory, select channel, push SET, turn Dial to m CLr, & push F.
