Memory Operation
Checking a Memory Channel Status
Before programming a channel into memory, you can check the current contents of that
channel without the danger of over-writing the channel accidentally.
1. Press the [
M
u
V
] or [
V
u
M
] key to display
the “MEMORY CHANNEL” list screen.
The data stored in the currently selected
memory channel will be displayed on the
LCD. However, since you are only check-
ing the contents of the memory channel, the
radio will not have moved to the memory
channel frequency.
2. Rotate the
MULTI
function knob to select a
different memory channel.
3. To exit from the Memory Check mode and
return to the VFO-A mode, press the [
A
]
(
BCK
) key.
r
While operating in the VFO mode, using Memory Check, you may store the current
VFO frequency into the selected memory by press the [
V
u
M
] key.
Memory Tune (MT) operation
The frequency may be freely tuned off from any memory channel in “Memory Tune” mode;
this is similar to VFO operation.
So long as you do not over-write the contents of the current memory, Memory Tune
operation will not alter the contents of the memory channel.
1. While operating in the VFO mode, press the
[
V/M
] key to enter the Memory mode.
2. Rotate the
MULTI
function knob to select
the memory channel.
3. Rotate the
DIAL
knob; you will now ob-
serve that the memory channel frequency
is changing. The “Memory Channel Num-
ber” will be replaced by one which indicates
“MT” (Memory Tune).
r
During Memory Tune operation, you may
change operating modes, and engage the
offset Clarifier, if desired.

4. Press the [
V/M
] key momentarily to return to the originally memorized frequency of
the current memory channel. One more press of the [
V/M
] key will return to VFO op-
eration.
