the 

MULTI/CH control or press Mic [UP]/ 

[DWN] to select a memory channel from P0 to

Using the start and end frequencies that you stored 
in channels P0 to P9, Programmable VFO restricts 
the frequency range that you can tune with the 
Tuning control.  One application of this function is 
to help you operate within the authorized frequency 
limits of your license.

1 Press 

[M/V] to enter Memory Recall mode.

2 Turn 

the 

MULTI/CH control or press Mic [UP]/ 

[DWN] to select a memory channel from P0 to 
P9.

 

You can now only tune from the start frequency to 
the end frequency, using the Tuning control.

Note:  Pressing Mic [UP]/ [DWN] or turning the MULTI/
CH control changes the memory channel number while in 
Programmable VFO mode.

You can lock out memory channels that you prefer 
not to monitor during Memory Scan.  Memory Scan is 
described in the next chapter {page 48}.

the memory channel number to indicate the 
channel has been locked out.

•   Repeatedly pressing [CLR] toggles between

If there are memory channels that you will not recall

Quick Memory is designed to quickly and temporarily 
save data without specifying a particular memory 
channel.  Use Quick Memory to store data you will not 
use in future operating sessions.  For example, as you 
tune across the band looking for DX, it is convenient 
to store stations that you want to contact.  You can 
quickly jump between several different memory 
channels as you monitor them.

Quick Memory channels can store the following data:

VFO A frequency and 
operating mode

VFO B frequency and 
operating mode

RIT ON/ OFF

XIT ON/ OFF

RIT/ XIT offset frequency FINE ON/ OFF

Noise Blanker ON/ OFF

DSP Beat Cancel 
OFF/ 1/ 2
