procedure may also be used for DX work on 7 MHz SSB, etc.
1. In the VFO mode, set the desired Receive frequency and mode.
2. Press the [F] key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob, as needed, until Multi Function Row “b” [MW,
SKIP, TAG] appears on the display.
3. Press the [A](MW) key momentarily to enter the “Memory Check” mode, which is used to find an unused memory
channel. The frequency stored (if any) on the current memory channel will be shown in the display. Rotate the
MEM/VFO CH knob to select the channel on which you wish to store the receive frequency data.
4. Press and hold in the [A](MW) key for one second until you hear a double beep, which confirms that the Receive
frequency data is now stored.
5. Now, set the desired Transmit frequency and mode on the VFO.
6. Press the [A](MW) key momentarily; do not rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob!
While the “memory channel number” is blinking, press and hold in the PTT switch; while holding it in, press and hold
in the [A](MW) key for one second.
The double “beep” will confirm that independent Transmit frequency data is now stored. You may now release the
PTT switch.
In step 6 above, pressing the PTT switch does not activate the transmitter. It simply sends a signal to the microprocessor
that an independent Transmit frequency is being stored on the same channel as a previously-stored Receive frequency.
Memory Channel Recall
1. If you currently are in the VFO tuning mode, press the V/M key once to enter the “Memory” mode (a memory
channel number “M-nnn” will appear on the display in the space previously occupied by “VFOa” or “VFOb”).
2. To select another memory channel, turn the MEM/VFO CH knob.
3. When your memory channels are partitioned into Memory Groups via Menu Mode No-055 [MEM GROUP], it is easy
to change Memory Groups; press the MEM/VFO CH knob momentarily (a Group Number (“Ma” ~ “Mj” will blink),
then turn the MEM/VFO CH knob to step through the channels until you enter another. You may now press the
MEM/VFO CH knob once more to restrict memory channel access to the newly-selected Group.
4. Once you are operating on a memory channel, you may tune off of the originally-memorized frequency (as though
you were in the VFO mode). Just rotate the DIAL knob; the “Memory Channel Number” will be replaced by one
which indicates “MTUNE,” indicating that you have now shifted into the “Memory Tuning” mode. When operating
the Memory Tuning mode, if you find another frequency you wish to store into another memory channel, just press
the [A](MW) key momentarily, select a new memory channel via the MEM/VFO CH knob, then press and hold in the
[A](MW) key until you hear the double beep.
5. To exit the Memory Tuning mode, press the V/M key as follows:
