ANUAL

The 

FT-1900R

 provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include:

200 “basic” memory channels, numbered “0” through “199.”

A “Home” channel, providing storage and quick recall of one prime frequency.

10 sets of band-edge memories, also known as “Programmable Memory Scan” chan-
nels, labeled “L0/U0” through “L9/U9.”

8 Memory Banks, labeled “BANK 1” through “BANK 8.” Each Memory Bank can
be assigned up to 200 channels from the “basic” memory channels.

Each memory may be appended with an alpha-numeric label of up to six characters, for
quick channel recognition.

1. In the VFO mode, select the desired frequency, repeater shift, CTCSS/DCS tone, and

TX power level.

2. Press and hold in the [

D/MR

(

MW

)] key for one second. A memory number will appear

in the bottom right-hand corner of the display. If the channel number is blinking, there
currently is no data stored on that channel; if the channel number is not blinking, that
channel is currently “occupied” by other frequency data, and you won’t want to use that
channel unless the data is no longer of interest.

3. Within five seconds of pressing the [

D/MR

(

MW

)] key, use the 

DIAL

 knob to select the

desired memory into which you wish to store the frequency.

4. Press the [

D/MR

(

MW

)] key again, this time momentarily, to store the displayed data

into the selected memory channel slot. The memory label will disappear (since you are
still operating in the VFO mode).

5. To store other frequencies, repeat steps 1 through 4, remembering to set the repeater

shift, CTCSS/DCS tone, and TX power level, as appropriate.
