Home Channel Memory
A convenient one-touch “Home” channel memory is available to simplify return to your
most-often-used frequency. This memory does not appear in the regular memory bank, to
simplify operation and speed recall of this important channel.
To recall the Home channel, just press the [
D/MR
(
MW
)] key, repeatedly if necessary, until
the “ HM ” icon appears on the display; this indicates that the Home Channel has been
recalled.
USA version Asian version
The factory default frequency for the Home channel is 146.520 MHz (USA version, Asian
version: 144.000 MHz). You can re-program the Home channel in a manner identical to
that used for the regular memories:
1. From the VFO mode, tune in the frequency you wish to store, and set all repeater
shifts and other data just the way you do for “normal” memory channel storage.
2. Press and hold in the [ D/MR
(
MW
)] key for one second, then press the [
REV
(
DW
)]
key to store the displayed data into the Home channel. The memory label will disap-
pear (since you are still operating in the VFO mode).
You may also append an alpha-numeric “Tag” (label) to a Home channel, as described
previously. be sure to recall the Home channel first, then enter the Menu (selection “ 30
NM SET
”) to program the label’s contents.
From the Home channel, you may tune off (as in the Memory Tune mode) without
doing anything more than rotating the main DIAL knob. This automatically shifts
control to the VFO, making it a good idea to program in your area’s “Calling Fre-
quency” as the Home channel. Once contact is established, you may then tune off
the Calling Frequency to an open simplex frequency to carry on your QSO.
Memory-Only Mode
Once memory channel programming has been completed, you may place the radio in a
“Memory Only” mode, whereby VFO and Home Channel operation are impossible. This
may be particularly useful during public-service events where a number of operators may
be using the radio for first time, and ultimate simplicity of channel selection is desired.
To place the radio into the Memory Only mode, turn it off. Now press and hold in the
[
D/MR
(
MW
)] key while turning the radio on. The VFO and Home Channel will now be
disabled.
To return to normal operation, repeat the above power-on procedure.
