Setting a Memory Loction
- In the VFO mode, select the desired frequency, repeater shift, CTCSS/DCS tone, and TX power level.
- Press and hold in the [D/MR(MW)] key for one second. A memory number will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of the display. If the channel number is blinking, there currently is no data stored on that channel; if the channel number is not blinking, that channel is currently “occupied” by other frequency data, and you won’t want to use that channel unless the data is no longer of interest.
- Within five seconds of pressing the [D/MR(MW)] key, use the DIAL knob to select the desired memory into which you wish to store the frequency.
- Press the [D/MR(MW)] key again, this time momentarily, to store the displayed data into the selected memory channel slot. The memory label will disappear (since you are still operating in the VFO mode).
- To store other frequencies, repeat steps 1 through 4, remembering to set the repeater shift, CTCSS/DCS tone, and TX power level, as appropriate.
Memory Labeling
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 club name, etc.). This is easily accomplished using the Set (Menu) mode.
- Recall the memory channel on which you wish to append a label.
- Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select “30 NM SET”.
- Press the [MHz(SET)] key. You will notice the first character location blinking, indicating that you are now in the Alpha-Numeric (“A/N”) entry mode. Within the A/N entry mode, rotate the DIAL knob to select characters; pressing the [LOW(A/N)] key will move the character’s entry location to the right.
- Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired number, letter, or symbol, then press the [LOW(A/N)] key to move the next character’s location. Press the [REV(DW)] key if you want to “backspace” one slot. To enter a space, press the [LOW(A/N)] key to move one space to the right, and then rotate the DIAL knob to select the Blank (space). Now press the [LOW(A/N)] key to enter the Blank (space). Press the [LOW(A/N)] key a second time to move to the next character location.
- Repeat step 4, as necessary, to complete the name tag (up to six characters) for your memory, then press the [MHz(SET)] key momentarily to save the A/N name just entered.
- Press and hold in the [MHz(SET)] key for one second to exit to normal operation.
