5 MEMORY CHANNELS

Programming

This is the method most often used to program mem- ory channels.

Select the desired memory channel.

Set the desired frequency.

When the memory channel already contains information, change the frequency using the main dial or the keypad.

When the memory channel is blank, use keypad entry only to set the frequency.

Set operating mode (p. 13) and tuning steps (p. 12).

Push and hold [MW] until the receiver emits 3 beeps.

The information is stored in the memory channel.

NOTE: When changing the memory channel before pushing [MW], the set frequency (and mode/tuning steps) is erased.

Copy and paste (memory editing)

When the frequency (and mode/tuning steps) is set for a channel; or, when you want to change a fre- quency using the contents of another memory chan- nel, the copy/paste function is helpful to keep (or con- firm) the previously programmed contents.

Push [M-SET] to temporarily store the displayed frequency, mode, etc.

M ” appears.

Only 1 channel can be stored in the temporary space.

Select the memory channel you wish to program

the frequency into.

Push [M-SET] again to paste the stored contents.

M ” disappears.

NOTE: Remember that pushing [MW] is always necessary to program contents into a memory channel. Pasted contents will be cleared if the [MW] key is not pushed for 1 sec.

[M-SET] key

Clearing

Information programmed into a memory channel can be cleared (erased).

Select the memory channel to be cleared.

Push and hold [M-CL] until the receiver emits 3

beeps.

 

Convenient: Bank assign function

 

Using the bank assign function, memory channels

 

can be removed (along with their programmed con-

[M-CL] key

tents) from a particular memory bank and placed

 

temporarily in the ‘free’ bank. See p. 21.
