FREQUENCY SETTING
Read me first
The IC-R8500 uses memory channels for storage of
frequencies (as well as mode, tuning steps, etc.).
When turning power OFF or changing memory chan-
nels, the previously displayed frequency cannot be
recalled unless it has been stored into a memory
channel. Therefore, when you want to keep a dis-
played frequency for later recall, you must program it
into a memory channel by pushing [MW] for 1 sec.
Convenient:
Use [M-SET] to program a displayed frequency (and
its mode, etc.) without overwriting the currently select-
ed memory. See p. 19.
Using the keypad
Push the numeral keys on the keypad to enter the
MHz digits for the desired frequency.
If a key is mistakenly pushed, push [CE
s
] and start
again from the beginning.
When entering the same MHz digits as the displayed
frequency, this step can be skipped.
Push [
t
].
Push the numeral keys to enter the frequency digits
below 1 MHz.
If a key is mistakenly pushed, push [CE
s
] and start
again from the beginning.
Push [ENT] to set the input frequency.
When pushing [ENT] after entering the MHz digits, zeros
are automatically entered for the kHz digits.
