Memory Mode
The
VR-120D
provides 640 "standard" memory channels, numbered "000" through "963"
Memory channels may be used to store frequencies of particular interest, for convenient
recall without the need to scan through an entire operating band.
These memories are partitioned into ten Memory Banks, each
holding up to 64 memory channels. The Memory Bank number is
the first digit of the Memory Channel number, so Memory Chan-
nel 005 is in Memory bank "0", while Memory Channel 425 is in
Memory Bank "4."
Note:
Do not operate in the Memory Mode while Menu #13's setting is "SKIP." The
"SKIP" memory bank is limited to 64 channels (total).

Two forms of memory storage are available on the
VR-120D
:
1.
"Simple" memory storage automatically memorizes the desired frequency into the next-
available unused memory channel register (without regard to any particular memory
channel number).
2.
"Designated" memory storage allows you to assign the frequency data to any desired
memory channel number.
Simple Storage
1.
While operating in the VFO mode, select the desired frequency and reception mode
(AM, FM, W-FM) for the station to be memorized.
2.
Press and hold in the [
FUNC
] key, then press the [
V/M
] key
momentarily. The microprocessor will automatically select
the next-available "open" memory channel (a memory regis-
ter on which no data has been stored). On the left upper side
of the display, a three-digit number will appear, indicating
the channel number which will be used for channel data storage. On the right side,
"MW NAM" will appear ("MW" stands for "Memory Write").
3.
If you wish to append an alpha-numeric label (name) to the channel, press and hold in
the [
FUNC
] key, then press the [
SCAN
] key. Now skip to step (3.) of the Labeling
Memories section below, and perform steps (3.) through (6.).
4.
Now, press the [
V/M
] key once more while still holding in
the [
FUNC
] key. This stores the frequency into the memory.
"WRITE" will appear of the display, to confirm that the fre-
quency data was successfully stored.
Note:
You must press the
[
V/M
]
key per this step whether or not you are appending an
alpha-numeric label to a memory.
