17Note:

18◆ The dedicated memory is used for storing both received messages

and messages for transmitting. Receiving a new message when the

19memory is full causes the oldest message to be deleted. A message

20not yet transmitted 5 times may be unexpectedly deleted. If “ ” stays at the bottom left of the display when memory is full, a new

21message does not replace the oldest message. This transceiver returns a reject command and shows “rM” and a call sign at the

22bottom of the display.

23◆ A message already transmitted can be easily sent to the same station. Select the message in step 4 and press [MSG]. The call sign and message are copied to the recalled entry display {page 79}.
