MEMORY FUNCTIONS
The receiver contains 440 programmable memory loca-
tions that can be used to store and recall commonly
monitored frequencies. These 440 locations are divided
into blocks of 10, ie, 00-09, 10-19, 20-29, etc. This allows
convenient grouping of frequencies. As an example, 00-
09 could be broadcast stations, 10-19 could be time
stations such CHU and WWYV, frequencies for listening at
differenttimes of day, etc. The receiveris preprogrammed
(at the factory) with (20) useful frequencies and corre-
sponding mode in memory channels 00-19, With memory
locations programmed, you can use the various scan
functions to automatically monitor desired memory fre-
quencies. The following may be stored in any memory
location:
1) Frequency
2) Mode
3) Bandwidth
4) AGC setting
5) PRE or ATTN setting
6) Antenna
7) Notch ON/OFF
8) Noise blanker setting
9) Synchronous detector ON/OFF
