Note that after the last step, the radio is still in the
VFO mode, so you can tune around and select other
frequencies to store into other memories.
Memory Recall
'""
To recall a memory, press ,';'J momentarily. The
transceiver enters the "Memory" mode, using the
memories programmed in the previous section.
To select the memories, do not turn the Dial. In-
stead, use

or

to step through the memories on
the current band. If you want to select memories on
another band, press

as needed to select that band,
then use

to select the memories on that band.
~~·~ R. F. Says: If you turn the Dial while in the
~ Memory mode, the radio switches to the VFO
·-
mode, using the current memory frequency as
the starting point for tuning. This may be convenient
for those operating situations when you need
to
move
to avoid interference from other users. Pressing
~
returns the radio to the Memory mode. The trans-
ceiver remembers the frequency excursion you made,
so pressing
~~
11
again to return to the VFO mode puts
you back where you were after tuning away from the
memory frequency!
Independent Tx/Rx Frequency
Storage ("Odd Splits")
You may need to use a repeater that has a non-stand-
ard shift (an offset that does not conform to the local
repeater band plan). The VX-IR allows you to store
the transmit and receive frequencies independently
into a single memory; so you can store the non-stand-
ard repeater's settings without having to change the
"standard" repeater shifts in your VX- IR ( ±600 kHz,
±5 MHz, etc.). The procedure is very simple:
O
Be sure the transceiver is in the VFO mode. Press
~
11
once to change to YFO operation, if necessary.
O
Tum the Dial to the desired receive frequency.
Then, as with "Simple Memory Storage" pre-
viously, set up all needed CTCSS/DCS tones and
modes. but eliminate any repeater shift (D or
a
icon) which might be set.
