Memory Storage
1.
Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any
desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset. The power level
may also be set at this time, if you wish to store it.
2.
Press and hold in the
key for 1/2 second.
3.
Within five seconds of releasing the
key, rotate the
DIAL
to select the desired
memory channel. The microprocessor will automatically select the next-available “free”
channel (a memory register on which no data has been
stored). If you see an Asterisk (
Û
) by any channel num-
ber, it means that the channel currently has no data written
on it (i.e. the channel is “free”.)
4.
Press the
key once more to store the frequency into memory..
5.
You still will be operating in the “VFO” mode, so you may now enter other frequen-
cies, and store them into additional memory locations, by repeating the above process.
You may change the automatic memory channel selection feature to select
the “next-highest memory channel above the last-stored memory channel”
by instead of the “next-available ‘free’ channel” via the Menu Item labeled
(
Basic Setup #12 MW MODE
); see page 85.
Storing Independent Transmit Frequencies (“Odd Splits”)
All memories can store an independent transmit frequency, for operation on repeaters with
non-standard shift. To do this:
1.
Store the receive frequency using the method already described under
MEMORY
STORAGE
(it doesn’t matter if a repeater offset is active).
2.
Turn to the desired transmit frequency, then press and hold in the
key for 1/2
second.
3.
Within five seconds of releasing the
key, rotate the
DIAL
to select the same memory
channel number as used in step “1” above.
4.
Press and hold in the
PTT
switch, then press the
key once more momentarily
while holding the
PTT
switch in (this does not key the transmitter).
Whenever you recall a memory which contains independently-stored transmit
and receive frequencies, the “
” indication will appear in the display..
