Once memory channel programming has been completed, you may place the radio in a
“M
EMORY
-O
NLY
” mode, whereby VFO and H
OME
channel operation are impossible. This
may be particularly useful during public-service events where a number of operators may
be using the radio for first time, and ultimate simplicity of channel selection is desired.
To place the radio into the M
EMORY
-O
NLY
mode, turn it off. Now press and hold in the [
D/
MR
] key while turning the radio on. The VFO and H
OME
channel will now be disabled.
To return to normal operation, repeat the above power-on procedure.

EMORIES
With 174 total memories available, there frequently are situations where you may desire to
delete certain memorized frequencies. The procedure for deleting a channel is quite simple:
(1) Press and hold in the [
D/MR
] key for one second.
(2) Rotate the
Main Dial
to select the channel to be deleted. Note that Memory Channel
1 may
not
be deleted, as it is the Priority Channel.
(3) Press the [
A/N
] button. This will cause the display to shift to Memory Channel 1, and
the previously-selected memory will be deleted.
Important Note
: Once deleted, the channel data cannot be recovered.
