Channel naming function
The IC-M73/IC-M73EURO can assign up to 10-character
channel names for each operating channel, including each
weather channel. This provides easy recognition of the
channel in use, or station names.
When shipped from the factory, the IC-M73/IC-M73EURO
is programmed with default names for each VHF marine
channel. These defaults can be changed, if desired.
