Masking Memories
There may be situations where you want to “Mask” memories so they are not visible during
memory selection or scanning. For example, several memories used only in a city you visit
infrequently may be stored, then “Masked” until you visit that city, at which time you can
“Unmask” them for normal use.
1.
Press the [
V/M
] key, if needed, to enter the MR mode.
2.
Press and hold in the [
F/W
] key for one second, then rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the
memory channel to be “Masked” from view.
3.
Press the [
] key. The display will revert to memory channel #1. If you rotate the
DIAL
knob to the location you just “Masked,” you will observe that it is now invisible.
4.
To Unmask the hidden memory, repeat the above procedure: press and hold in the [
F/
W
] key for one second, rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the masked memory’s number,
then press the [
] key to restore the memory channel’s data.
Watch out! You can manually store data over a “Masked” memory, deleting
previous data, if you’re not careful. Use the “next available memory” tech-
nique storage technique to avoid over-writing a masked memory.
Moving Memory Data to the VFO
Data stored on memory channels can easily be moved to the VFO, if you like.
1.
Select the memory channel containing the frequency data to be moved to VFO.
2.
Press and hold in the [
F/W
] key for one second, then press the [
V/M
] key. The data
will now have been copied to the VFO, although the original memory contents will
remain intact on the previously-stored channel.
If a Split Frequency Memory channel was transferred, the Tx frequency will
be ignored (you will be set up for Simplex operation on the Receive frequency).
