REVIEW OF FT-901 MEMORY
OPERATION
In order to explain the operation of the FV-901,
a review of the operating procedure of the FT-901
memory feature is necessary.

TRANSCEIVE
OPERATION

THE
FV-901 (Figs. 1 and 2)
Refer to the insert, "FV-901
Operation
Decision
Tree."
Taking
the "Transceive"
branth,
we can
see
that transceive operation
may
be controlled
from either the FT-901 or the FV-901. From the
previous

SPLIT
OPERATION
USING
THE
FY-901
(Figs. | and 2)
Split operation,
using the FT-901
VFO,
FT-901
memory,
or the FV-901
VFO
or memory,
makes
a
number
of interesting
combinations
possible.
Prectical
applications
of split operation
will be
offered at the end of this discussion.
Split operation
adds one
more
level of decision-
making
to the logical process, but the procedure
is identical to that of the previous section, Funda-
mentally,
the decision
is made
to receive on
the
FT-901
or the FV-901,
and
from
there control
is transferred
according
to the requirements
of
the situation.
Following
