10  MEMORY FEATURES
MEMORY CHANNELS
This transceiver provides you with 120 memory 
channels, numbered 00 to 99, P0 to P9, and E0 to E9, 
for storing operating frequency data, modes, and other 
information.  Memory channels 00 to 99 are called 
Conventional Memory Channels.  Memory channels 
P0 to P9 are designed for programming VFO tuning 
ranges and scan ranges.  Memory channels E0 to E9 
are Expansion Memory Channels.  The data you can 
store is listed below.
Conventional memory channels are used for storing 
data you will often recall.  For example, you may store 
the frequency where you regularly meet your club 
members.

STORING DATA IN MEMORY
There are 2 methods used for storing transmission/
reception frequencies and associated data in memory 
channels 00 to 99.  Use either method, depending 
on the relationship of the reception and transmission 
frequencies you store:
• Simplex 
channels:
RX frequency = TX frequency
• Split-frequency 
channels:
RX frequency 
 TX frequency
Memory channels P0 to P9 can also be used as 
simplex channels.
Note:  When RIT or XIT is ON, the frequency that includes the 
RIT or XIT offset will be stored.
 Simplex Channels
1 Press

numeric keys.  Press [1.8 (1)][3.5 (2)] for 
example.
5 Press 
[M.IN] again to store the data.
•  The previous data stored in the channel is 
overwritten.
