MEMORY-TO-VFO TRANSFER

You may sometimes want to search for other stations or a clear frequency near the frequency stored in a memory channel or the Call channel. In this case first transfer the contents of a memory channel or the Call channel to the VFO.

1Recall your desired memory channel or the Call channel.

2Press [F], [MsV].

7• The entire contents of the memory channel or the Call channel are copied to the VFO.

Note:

◆A transmit frequency from an odd-split memory channel or odd- split Call channel is not transferred to the VFO. To transfer a transmit frequency, press [REV], then press [F], [MsV].

◆Lockout status and memory names are not copied from a memory channel to the VFO.

◆If you recall the Call channel in step 1, simply turning the Tuning Control or pressing Mic [UP]/ [DWN] also transfers the contents to the VFO. The frequency, however, is changed by one step.
