MEMORY OPERATION ON “HOME”
CHANNEL MEMORIES
Four Special one-touch “Home” channels are available, for
special frequencies you use often. Either “simplex” or “split”
frequency/mode data may be stored in the “Home” channel
locations. Special “Home” channels are available for HF
(any frequency between 1.8 and 29.7 MHz), 50 MHz, 144
MHz, and 430 MHz.
These memories may prove particularly useful for monitor-
ing propagation beacons, providing one-touch recall of the
beacon frequency for a quick check of band conditions.
HOME Channel Storage
1. Tune the desired frequency, and set the operating mode.
If this is an FM channel, set up any required CTCSS/
DCS and repeater shift configurations.
2. Press the
[

key momentarily, then rotate the MEM/
VFO CH knob, as needed, until Multi Function Row
“b”

3. Press the
[

“Memory Check” mode.
4. Press and hold in the HOME key for one second. This
stores the frequency data into the “Home” channel loca-
tion. As usual, you will hear a double beep to confirm
the successful storage of the frequency data.
5. If you wish to store a “Split” frequency pair into the
“Home” channel, store the Receive frequency as in steps
1 ~ 4 above. Now set the desired Transmit frequency.
Once more, press the
[
A

)
key momentarily. Press
and hold in the microphone’s PTT switch; while hold-
ing the PTT switch, again press and hold in the HOME
key for one second. This stores the transmit frequency
data into the “Home” channel location.
HOME Channel Recall
1. Press the HOME key momentarily to recall the Home
Channel on the band group where you currently are op-
erating (HF, 50 MHz, 144 MHz, or 430 MHz). The
“HOME” indication will appear on the display.
2. Press the HOME key once more to return to the previ-
ously-used frequency (either a VFO frequency or a
memory channel).
LABELING MEMORIES
You may wish to append an alpha-numeric “Tag” (label) to
a memory or memories, to aid in recollection of the channel’s
intended use (such as a club name, etc.). This is easily ac-
complished using the Menu mode.

pended a label.
