33. VFO & Memory Control

[AuB] Button:

Pressing this button for ½ second (until the double beep) transfers data from the main display (either Main VFO-A or a recalled memory channel) to Sub VFO-B, overwriting any previous contents in the Sub VFO. Use this key to set both Main and Sub Receivers to the same frequency and mode.

[AutB] Button:

Pressing this button momentarily exchanges the contents of Main VFO-A (or a recalled memory chan- nel), and Sub VFO-B. No data is lost.

[M GRP] Button:

When more than one memory group has been en- abled, pressing this button limits selection and scan- ning to those memories within the selected group.

[M CK] (Memory Check) Button:

This key displays the contents of memory channels without disturbing operation. When pressed, “M CK” is displayed above the channel number, and each memory channel can then be checked on the Sub Receiver display by rotating the VRF/MEM CH selec- tor. Empty memory channels display as two decimals, with no frequency digits. Press this button again to cancel memory checking.

[AuM] Button:

Pressing and holding in this key for ½ second (until the double beep) copies the current operating data from Main VFO-A, or a recalled memory, to the currently selected memory channel, overwriting any previous data stored there. Also, pressing and holding this but- ton after recalling a memory, without first retuning, causes the memory channel to be “masked,” and re- peating the process restores the masked memory.

[RPT] Button:

For 29 MHz FM operation, this button activates the standard HF FM repeater offset. Pressing [RPT] once or twice while receiving causes the transmit frequency to be shifted 100 kHz below or above the receiving frequency, respectively. A selectable CTCSS subaudible tone is also transmitted automatically when using this feature, to allow access to repeaters that require it. Pressing [RPT] a third time cancels repeater shift operation.

34.BAND (Keypad)

The keypad provides one-touch band selection, or digital frequency entry. Normally, pressing one of the ten white numbered keys selects the corresponding (MHz) amateur band for operation (pressing the SUB button first, followed by a [BAND] key, selects that band for the Sub VFO). If you press the white numbered key for the band you are already on, you will select the alternate subband VFO on that band. See the “Opera- tion” chapter for details.
