The “Quick Memory” Bank provides one-touch access to
frequencies you want to store and recall in a hurry. You may
store a “QMB” channel into a “regular” memory later, if
you like; use of the “regular” memories will be described
later.
QMB Channel Storage
1. Tune in the desired frequency and set the operating mode
and bandwidth. If this is an FM channel, set up any re-
quired CTCSS/DCS and repeater shift configurations.
2. Press and hold in the V/M key until a double “beep” is
heard. The second beep provides audible confirmation
that the data has been stored into the QMB memory.
Pressing the [A](STO) key momentarily while
in Multi Function Row “c” [STO, RCL, PROC]
will also store a frequency into the QMB regis-
ter.
QMB Channel Recall
1. Press the
[
F
]
key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/
VFO CH knob, as needed, until Multi Function Row
“c”
[
STO, RCL, PROC
]
appears on the display.
2. Press the
[
B
](
RCL
)
key momentarily to recall the QMB
memory. “QMB” will appear at the upper left corner on
the display.
3. Press the
[
B
](
RCL
)
key once more to return to the previ-
ous frequency (either a VFO frequency or a Memory
channel).
If you move the DIAL knob or MEM/VFO CH
knob while in the QMB mode, you can change
frequencies as if you were in a “VFO” mode.
You also can change operating mode by pressing the
MODE( ) or MODE( ) key. When this is done,
“MTQMB” will appear in the display, where “MT” repre-
sents “Memory Tuning.” Press the [B](RCL) key once
more to return to the originally-stored QMB frequency.
MEMORY OPERATION ON
“REGULAR” MEMORY CHANNELS
Most Memory operation will be conducted in the “regular”
memory registers. There are 200 memory channels avail-
able for storage and recall of important frequencies.
Normal Memory Storage
1. Tune in the desired frequency, and set the operating mode
and bandwidth. If this is an FM channel, set up any re-
quired CTCSS/DCS and repeater shift configurations.
Standard (default) repeater shifts do not require you to uti-
lize the “split” frequency memory technique, described later.
2. Press the
[
F
]
key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/
VFO CH, as needed, until Multi Function Row “b”
[
MW,
SKIP, TAG
]
appears on the display.
3. Press the
[
A
](
MW
)
key momentarily to enter the
“Memory Check” mode, which is used to find an unused
memory channel. The frequency stored (if any) on the
current memory channel will be shown in the display.
Rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob to select the channel num-
ber on which you wish to store the current frequency data.
4. Press and hold in the
[
A
](
MW
)
key for one second until
you hear a double beep; the second beep confirms that
the frequency information was successfully stored.
Split-Frequency Memory Storage
You can also store “Split” frequencies, such as when operat-
ing on a repeater system not utilizing a “standard” offset. This
procedure may also be used for DX work on 7 MHz SSB, etc.
1.
In the VFO mode, set the desired Receive frequency and mode.
2. Press the
[
F
]
key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/
VFO CH knob, as needed, until Multi Function Row
“b”
[
MW, SKIP, TAG
]
appears on the display.
3. Press the
[
A
](
MW
)
key momentarily to enter the
“Memory Check” mode, which is used to find an unused
memory channel. The frequency stored (if any) on the
current memory channel will be shown in the display.
Rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob to select the channel on
which you wish to store the receive frequency data.
4. Press and hold in the
[
A
](
MW
)
key for one second until
you hear a double beep, which confirms that the Receive
frequency data is now stored.
5.
Now, set the desired Transmit frequency and mode on the VFO.
6. Press the
[
A
](
MW
)
key momentarily; do not rotate the
MEM/VFO CH knob!
While the “memory channel number” is blinking, press
and hold in the PTT switch; while holding it in, press
and hold in the
[
A
](
MW
)
key for one second.
The double “beep” will confirm that independent Trans-
mit frequency data is now stored. You may now release
the PTT switch.
In step 6 above, pressing the PTT switch does
not activate the transmitter. It simply sends a
signal to the microprocessor that an indepen-
dent Transmit frequency is being stored on the same chan-
nel as a previously-stored Receive frequency.
