Kenwood 440 MHz TH-D7A, 144 instruction manual Naming A Memory Channel

NAMING A MEMORY CHANNEL

You can name memory channels using up to 8 alphanumeric characters. When you recall a named memory channel, its name appears on the display instead of the stored frequency. Names can be call signs, repeater names, cities, names of people, etc.

1Recall the desired memory channel.

2Press [F], [9] to select “F–9 (MEMORY NAME)”.

•The first digit blinks.

3Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select the first digit.

•You can enter alphanumeric characters plus special ASCII characters.

4Press [OK].

•The cursor moves to the next digit.

5Repeat steps 3 and 4 to enter up to 8 digits.

•Pressing [OK] after selecting the 8th digit completes the programming.

•To complete programming after entering less than 8 digits, press [OK] twice.

•Each press of [ESC] causes the cursor to move backward.

•Pressing [A/B] deletes the digit at which the cursor is blinking.

After storing a memory name, pressing [MN<->f]switches the display between the memory name and frequency.

You can also use the keypad to enter alphanumeric characters in step 3. For example, each press of [TNC] switches entry as A, B, C, a, b, c, then 2. Press [DUAL] to switch 0 and space. Press [ENT] to switch among the special ASCII characters.

Note:

◆You can also name the Program Scan {page 37} and DTMF {page 42} channels, but you cannot name the Call channel {page 30}.

◆You can assign names only to memory channels in which you have stored frequencies and related data.

◆The stored names can be overwritten by repeating steps 1 to 5.

◆The stored names also are erased by clearing memory channels.
