Memory Offset Tuning
Once you have recalled a particular memory channel, you may easily tune off that channel,
as though you were in the “VFO” mode.
1. With the
FT-8800R
in the “MR” (Memory Recall) mode, select the desired memory
channel.
2. Now press and hold in the [
SCN
] key for 1/2 second; the “
MT
” icon will appear on the
display.
3. Rotate the
DIAL
knob, as desired, to tune to a new frequency. The synthesizer steps
selected for VFO operation on the current band will be the steps used during Memory
Tuning.
4. Press and hold in the [
V/M
] key for 1/2 second during Memory Tuning, the data will now
have been copied to VFO, although the original memory contents will remain intact on
the previously-stored channel.
5. If you wish to return to the
original
memory frequency, press the [
V/M
] key momen-
tarily. The “
MT
” icon will disappear.
Deleting Memories
With 1052 memories available (except memory channel “1”), there frequently are situations
where you may desire to delete certain memorized frequencies. The procedure for deleting
a channel is quite simple:
1. Press the [
V/M
] key, if needed, to enter the Memory mode.
2. Press and hold in the [
SET
] key for 1/2 second, then rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob
to select the memory channel to be deleted. Note that memory channel #1 may
not
be
deleted.
3. Press the “
Main
” band [
SCN
] key momentarily. The display will revert to memory chan-
nel #1. If you rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob to the location you just “Masked,” you
will observe that it is now invisible.
Note: Once deleted, the channel data cannot be recovered.
