NAMING A MEMORY CHANNEL Available Characters Using the Tuning Control

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

1Press [MR] to recall your desired memory channel.

2Press [F], [MN<->f]to enter memory name input mode.

• The entry cursor appears.

3Turn the Tuning control or press []/ [] to select the first character.

•You can enter alphanumeric characters plus special ASCII characters. Refer to the following table for the available characters.

•Press [MONI] to delete the character at the cursor position.

•You can also use the numeric keypad to enter a character (Special ASCII characters are not available). For example, each press of [2] switches entry as a, b, c, 2, A, B, C and then back to a.

•While pressing and holding [LAMP], turn the Tuning control to jump to the first character of each ASCII character group.

4Press [].

•The cursor moves to the next digit.

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

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

•To complete programming before entering less than 8 digits, press [MNU] or press [] twice.

•Press [] to move the cursor back.

•Press [PTT] ([F], [VFO], [MR], or [CALL]) to cancel the entry.

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

◆You can also name the DTMF memory channels {page 31} and Information Channels {page 20} but you cannot name the Call channel {page 19}.

◆You cannot assign a memory name to a channel that does not contain data.

◆You can overwrite stored names by repeating steps 1 to 5.

◆The stored name is erased when you clear the memory channel data.
