Press [F]+RPT to display the currently stored repeater offset. You can use the
same methods to change this offset as you use for general tuning (including MHz
steps), as described above under Frequency and Step Selection. When you have
the desired offset displayed, press RPT (only) to return to the operating
frequency display.
Memory Storage
The FT-712RH offers eighteen general purpose memories, numbered 1 through
18, and three special memories, labelled C, L and U. The general purpose
memories and the "C" (Call Channel memory) can each store separate receive and
transmit frequencies or repeater shift, and tone squelch data (if the optional FTS-
12 is installed). The L and U memories can store everything except separate
transmit frequencies, and are used for PMS operation, described later.
To store a frequency in memory:
(1)
Select the desired frequency (and repeater split, if desired) in the Dial mode
as described above.
(2)
Press and hold the F/WRITE key for 2-second (until the second beep sounds).
A Memory number appears blinking in the shaded box at the upper left corner
of the display.
(3)
Within five seconds of step (2), use the selector knob or microphone
UP/DWN keys to select the desired Memory for storage. If you select one
that was already being used, it will be overwritten with new data in the next
step.
(4)
Press F/WRITE again to store the displayed data into the selected Memory:
the Memory number will stop blinking for a second, and then disappear as
operation continues in the Dial mode.
When storing split-frequency memories you have the choice of either the
Repeater Split method, described previously, or of storing separate transmit and
receive frequencies. To store a separate transmit frequency, just store the receive
frequency as described above, and then tune to the desired transmit frequency,
press F/WRITE again for 2-second, and
