To label a memory with an alpha/numeric name, the
next step is to use the
DIAL
selector knob to select
any of the 48 available characters (including letters,
numbers, and special symbols). When the desired first
character appears, press the
VOLUME
knob momen-
tarily to move on to the next character.
Select succeeding characters in the same manner,
pressing the
VOLUME
knob momentarily after each
selection.
After entering the entire name (eight characters maxi-
mum), press the [
MW
(
SPL-W
)] key for 2 seconds to
save all data for the channel and exit.
Note
: If you have transferred a Weather Channel directly
to memory, the “WX-001 ~ WX-010” labels utilize the
alphanumeric memory, and other labels may not be stored.
But if you go to the VFO mode, and dial up or key in the
weather station’s frequency manually, you may then store
the frequency and a custom alpha-numeric label yourself.
Recalling the Memories
Press the
VOLUME
knob, repeatedly if necessary,
until “
- MR -
” (Memory Recall) appears on the dis-
play. In the MR mode, you will see “
CH-
” and the
previously selected channel number appearing on the
LCD.
Rotate the
DIAL
selector knob to select the desired
memory channel.
You may change the title structure of the Memory dis-
play type among:
1.
Channel Indication (sequential Channel Number,
e.g.
CH-001
,
CH-002
, etc.);
2.
Frequency Indication (e.g.
122.500
); or
3.
Alphanumeric Label (e.g.
LAX FSS
).
To change the Memory display title, press the
[
(
)] key repeatedly, if necessary, until you get
the desired display title structure.
To exit the Memory mode, press the
DIAL
selector
knob three times to return to the VFO mode.
Note
: In either the “MR” or the “Book” Memory mode,
an easy way to recall memories is to key in the memory
channel number, then press the [
SCAN
(
DW
)] key. For
example, to recall memory channel #14, press [
1
]
[
4
]
[

(
