Memory Bank.
R.F. Says:
1) You may assign one memory channel into multiple Memory Banks.
2) The PMS memory channels (L1/U1 through L50/U50) may not be assigned to a Memory
Bank.
Memory Bank Recall
1. Press the [MR(SKIP)] key, if needed, to enter the Memory Recall mode.
2. Press and hold in the [VFO(PRI)] key, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired
Memory Bank (“BANK 1” through “BANK10”).
3. Press the [MR(SKIP)] key momentarily; now, as you rotate the DIAL knob to select
memories, you will observe that you can only select memory channels in the current
memory bank. The “BANK” indication will appear at the left side of the frequency display
while operating within a Memory Bank.
4. To change to another Memory Bank, press and hold in the [VFO(PRI)] key, rotate the
DIAL knob to select the new Memory Bank, then press the [MR(SKIP)] key momentarily.
5. To exit from Memory Bank operation, select “NOBANK” in step 4 above. You are now in
the “standard” Memory Recall mode, without utilization of the Memory Banks. The
memories stored in the various Banks will remain in those banks, however; you do not
need to store them again.
Moving Memory Data to the VFO
Data stored on memory channels can easily be moved to the last selected VFO, if you like.
1. Select the memory channel containing the frequency data to be moved to the VFO.
2. Press the [BAND(BAND DN)] key momentarily to activate the “Memory Tune” feature
temporarily, then press and hold in the [VFO(PRI)] key for one second. The data will now
have been copied to the last selected VFO, although the original memory contents will
remain intact on the previously-stored channel.
R.F. Says:
If a Split Frequency Memory channel was transferred, the TX frequency will be
ignored (you will be set up for Simplex operation on the Receive frequency).
Memory Only Mode
Once memory channel programming has been completed, you may place the radio in a
“Memory Only” mode, whereby VFO operation is impossible. This may be particularly useful
during public-service events, where a number of operators may be using the radio for first
time, and ultimate simplicity of channel selection is desired.
