1 PANEL DESCRIPTION

@1MEMORY SET SWITCH [M-SET] (p. 19)

Used to ‘copy and paste’ the displayed frequency into another memory channel.

•The first push is used to copy ( M appears), and the sec- ond push is used to paste ( M disappears).

•Frequency, mode, tuning step, memory name, etc. can be programmed into a temporary memory.

@2MEMORY CLEAR SWITCH [M-CL] (p. 19)

Push and hold to clear the contents of the displayed memory.

• Bank names cannot be cleared.

@3MEMORY WRITE SWITCH [MW] (p. 19)

Push and hold to store the displayed frequency, mode, tuning step, etc. into the selected memory channel.

@4BANK SWITCH [BANK] (p.17)

➥Push momentarily to toggle the bank limit func- tion ON and OFF (p 18).

•While “BANK” appears, only memory channels within the selected bank can be selected via the [M-CH] se- lector.

➥Push for 1 sec. to increase/decrease the number of memory channels in the selected bank (p. 21).

@5MEMORY CHANNEL SELECTOR [M-CH] (p.18)

➥Selects a memory channel in normal use.

•Clockwise rotation selects higher memory channel numbers; counterclockwise rotation selects lower memory channel numbers.

➥Selects a set mode item when quick set mode or initial set mode is selected (p. 30).

@6DELAY/SPEED CONTROL [DELAY/SPEED] (p.28)

ing on the [DLY D/S ] switch setting.

•When scan delay time is assigned, this control adjusts the scan delay time (scan pausing interval) during signal

reception. This setting is effective when “ ” is selected for the scan resume condition.

•When scan speed is assigned, this control adjusts the scan speed. In this case, scan delay time is determined while setting.

@7SCAN SWITCHES [SCAN SCAN SET ]
