Memory Offset Tuning; Deleting Memories - Yaesu VX-177 Operating Manual

M M
EMORY
Once you have recalled a particular memory channel, you may easily tune off that channel,
as though you were in the "VFO" mode.
1. With the VX-177 in the "MR" (Memory Recall) mode, select
the desired memory channel.
2. Press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key momentarily to activate the "Memory
Tuning" feature. The Memory Channel number will be replaced
tun
by " ." And if you have an alpha-numeric Tag displayed on
the memory channel, the display will automatically revert to dis-
play of the operating frequency, so you can navigate without
having to enter the Menu to change the display configuration.
3. Rotate the DIAL knob, as desired, to tune to a new frequency.
The synthesizer steps selected for VFO operation on the current
band will be the steps used during Memory Tuning.
4. If you wish to return to the original memory frequency, just press
the [ MR ( SKIP )] key momentarily. The display will revert to
display of the alpha-numeric Tag (if any) that may have origi-
nally appeared on the LCD.
5. If you wish to store a new frequency set during Memory Tuning, just press and hold in
the [ F ] key for one second, per normal memory storage procedure. The microproces-
sor will automatically set itself to the next-available clear memory location, and you
then press [ F ] again to lock in the new frequency.
1) If you want to replace the original memory contents with those of the new
frequency, be sure to rotate the DIAL knob to the original memory channel
number!
2) Any required CTCSS/DCS changes, or repeater offset modifications, must be done
before storing the data into the new (or original) memory channel location.
You may delete any of the memories (except for Memory Channel "1" and the Home
Channel). The procedure for deleting a channel is quite simple.
1. Press the [ VFO ( PRI )] key, if needed, to enter the MR mode.
2. Press and hold in the [ F key for one second, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the
memory channel to be deleted.
3. Press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key momentarily. The display will revert to memory channel
#1. The previously-selected memory will be deleted.
Important Notice! Once deleted, the channel data cannot be recovered!
