To Append an Alpha-numeric “Tag” to a Memory
1. After pressing and holding in the [
SET
] key in step 4 above, rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob to select the first character in the name you wish to store, the press the
“
Main
” band
DIAL
knob momentarily to move on to the next character. Letters, num-
bers, and symbols are available for storage.
2. Again rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob to select the desired letter, number, or symbol,
then press the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob momentarily to move on to the next character’s
slot. If you make a mistake, press the microphone’s [
DWN
] button to move back to the
previous character’s slot, then re-select the correct letter, number, or symbol.
3. Repeat the above step to program the remaining letters, numbers, or symbols of the
desired label. A total of six characters may be used in the creation of a label.
4. When you have completed the creation of the label, press the [
SET

save the label and exit to normal operation.
Storing Independent Transmit Frequencies (“Odd Splits”)
1. Store the receiving frequency using the method already described.
2. Turn to the desired transmit frequency on the “Main” band, then press and hold in the
[
SET
] key for 1/2 second.
3. Within ten seconds of pressing the [
SET
] key, use the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob or
microphone’s [
UP
]/[
DWN
] buttons to select the same memory channel number as used
in step 1 above.
4. Press and hold in the
PTT
switch, then press the [
SET
] key momentarily while holding
the

ing programmed into that memory register.
Whenever you recall a memory which contains independently-stored transmit and
receive frequencies, the “
[
]
” indication will appear in the display.
