RETRIEVING DATA FROM
MEMORY:

to exit
Memory Mode and return to
normal operation.
NOTE:
Each time you power on
the radio, the first time you enter
Memory Mode, it defaults to
memory location 0.
TIP:
Do not store favorite
frequencies into memory location
0. Leave 0 free and use it as a
scratch pad.
During normal operations, if you
wish to temporarily store
something to retrieve a short time
later, store it into memory location
0. That way it is easier to find the
temporary data later.

using the UP or DOWN arrows, just to
the right of the VFO knob. The band
