Memory Mode; Memory Storage; Storing Independent; Transmit Frequencies ("Odd Split") - Yaesu FT-270R Operating Manual

The FT-270R provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include:
200 "Standard" memory channels, numbered "
A "Home" channel, providing storage and quick recall of one prime frequency.
10 sets of band-edge memories, also known as "Programmable Memory Scan" chan-
nels, labeled "
10 Memory Banks, labeled "
can be assigned up to 200 channels from the "standard" memory channels.
10 "Weather Broadcast" Channels.
1. Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any
desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset, now. The power
level may also be set at this time, if you wish to store it.
2. Press and hold in the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )] key for one second.
3. Within ten seconds of releasing the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )] key, you need to make a deci-
sion regarding channel storage. The microprocessor will automatically select the next-
available "free" channel (a memory register on which no data has been stored), so you
may not wish to make any change; if this is the case, proceed to step 4. If you wish to
select a different channel number into which to store the data, rotate the DIAL knob to
select the desired memory channel. You may jump 10 memory channels, if you're in a
hurry (11 21
4. Press the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )] key once more to store the frequency into memory.
5. You still will be operating in the "VFO" mode, so you may now enter other frequencies,
and store them into additional memory locations, by repeating the above process.
Storing Independent Transmit Frequencies ("Odd Splits")
All memories can store an independent transmit frequency, for operation on repeaters with
non-standard shift. To do this:
1. Store the receive frequency using the method already described under MEMORY
STORAGE (it doesn't matter if a repeater offset is active).
2. Tune to the desired transmit frequency, then press and hold in the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )]
key for one second.
3. Within ten seconds of releasing the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )] key, rotate the DIAL knob to
select the same memory channel number as used in step "1" above.
4. Press and hold in the PTT switch. Then while holding the PTT switch in, momentarily
press the [ MR/MW ( SKIP )] key once more. (This does not key the transmitter).
1) The "Odd Splits" feature permits setting TONE/DCS indi-
vidually for transmit and receive. Briefly, press the [F/L] key,
and then press the [2(CODE)] key. Rotate the DIAL knob to
select the TONE or DCS for receive. You can confirm the Transmit and
receive TONE/DCS by alternately pressing of the [REV(HOME)] key.
