When you write a 6th frequency and operating mode,
the oldest written frequency and operating mode are
automatically erased to make room for the new set-
tings.
NOTE:
Each memo pad must have its own unique
combination of frequency and operating mode;
memo pads having identical settings cannot be
written.

You can simply call up the desired frequency and op-
erating mode of a memo pad by pushing [

S1
is selected in advance.
• Both VFO and memory modes can be use.

Memo pads
The transceiver has a memo pad function to store fre-
quency and operating mode for easy write and recall.
The memo pads are separate from memory channels.
The default number of memo pads is 5, however, this
can be increased to 10 in initial set mode if desired
(p. 80).
Memo pads are convenient when you want to memo-
rize a frequency and operating mode temporarily, such
as when you find a DX station in a pile-up or when a
station is busy for a long time and you want to tem-
porarily search for other stations.
Use the transceiver’s memo pads instead of relying on
hastily scribbled notes that are easily misplaced.
