Preferential Memory Scan
The
FT-7800R
also allows you to set up a “Preferential Scan List” of channels which you
can “flag” within the memory system. These channels are
designated by a “
” icon when you have selected them,
one by one, for the Preferential Scan List.
When you initiate memory scanning, beginning on a channel with the “
” icon appended,
only those channels bearing the “
” icon will be scanned. If you initiate scanning on a
channel which does not have the “
” icon appended, you will scan all channels including
those with the “
” icon appended.
Here is the procedure for setting up and using the Preferential Scan List:
1. Press the [
V/M

using memories already.

Scan List.

[
BAND

ting, then press and hold in the [
BAND
(
SET

operation.
