Labeling Memories
You may wish to append an alpha-numeric “Tag” (label) to a memory or memories, to aid
in recollection of the channel’s use (such as a club name, etc.). This is easily accomplished
using the Set Mode.

2.
Press and hold in the [
H/L
] key for one second to enter the Set
mode.

DIAL
knob to select the first digit of the desired label.
6.
Press the [
V/M
] key to move to the next character.
7.
Repeat steps 5 and 6 to program the remaining letters, numbers,
or symbols of the desired label. A total of six characters may be
used in the creation of a label.
8.
If you make a mistake, press the [
BAND
] key to back-space the
cursor, then re-enter the correct letter, number, or symbol.
9.
When you have completed the creation of the label, press the
PTT
key to save the label and exit.

H/L
] key for one second to enter the Set mode.

DIAL
knob to select the Set Mode Item labeled 28:

4.
Press the [
H/L
] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this
Item’s setting.
5.
Rotate the
DIAL
knob to set this Set Mode Item to “
ALPHA
”
(thus enabling the alpha-numeric display).
6.
Press the
PTT
key to save the new setting and activate the al-
pha-numeric Tag.
To disable the alpha-numeric Tag (enabling the frequency display),
just repeat above procedure, rotating the
DIAL
knob to select “

You may set up some memory channels to have their frequencies displayed,
while others may be set to have their Name Tag displayed; the selection within
Set Mode Item 28 is not applied to all memory channels at once.
