Programmable (Band Limit) Memory Scan - Yaesu FT-7900R Operating Manual

P
ROGRAMMABLE
This feature allows you to set sub-band limits for either scanning or manual VFO operation.
For example, you might with to set up a limit (in North America) of 144.300 MHz to 148.000
MHz so as to prevent encroachment into the SSB/CW "Weak Signal" portion of the band
below 144.300 MHz. Here's how to do this:
1. Set the radio to the VFO mode by pressing the [ V/M ( MW )] key, if necessary.
2. Using the techniques learned earlier, store 144.300 MHz into Memory Channel #L1
"L" designates the Lower sub-band limit).
3. Likewise, store 146.000 MHz into Memory Channel #U1
sub-band limit).
4. Press and hold in the [ SCAN ( SEL )] key for 1/2 sec-
ond, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired PMS
frequency pair (PMSxx
5. Press the [ SCAN ( SEL )] key to start scanning within
the just-programmed range. The "VFO
replaced by "P-xx P-xx". Tuning and scanning will now be
P-xx P-xx
P-xx
limited within the just-programmed range.
6. 50 pairs of Band Limit memories, labeled L1
therefore can set upper and lower operation limits on a number of bands, if you like.
7. To exit to normal operation, press and hold in the [ SCAN ( SEL )] key for 1/2 second.
