How to Skip (Omit) a Frequency during VFO Scan
If the VFO scan stops on a frequency or frequencies that you do not need (such as a spuri-
ous radiation from a television), such frequencies can be “skipped” during VFO scanning.
This accomplished by storing these frequencies in a special “Frequency Skip Memory”
bank reserved for this purpose.
To skip a frequency during VFO scanning:
1.
While VFO scanning is stopped on the frequency that you do not need, press and hold
the [
F/W
] key for one second, then rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the desired Fre-
quency Skip Memory channel (
901
-
999
, and
000
). The microprocessor will auto-
matically select the next-available “free” Frequency Skip Memory channel (a memory
register on which no data has been stored). If you see that any blinking channel num-
ber, it means that the channel currently has no data written on it (i.e. the channel is
“free”).
2.
Press the [
F/W
] key to store the frequency into the Frequency Skip Memory; it now is
programmed to be ignored during VFO scanning.
The VX-2R has 100 VFO Frequency Skip Memory Channels.
To re-institute a frequency into the VFO scan loop:
1.
Press the [
V/M
] key, if needed, to enter the MR mode.
2.
Press and hold in the [
F/W
] key for one second, then rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the
memory channel to be re-instituted.
3.
Press the [
] key to delete the channel from the Frequency Skip Memory; this will re-
institute the frequency into the VFO scan loop.
