Moving Memory Data to the VFO-A register
You may transfer the contents of the currently selected memory channel into the VFO-A register, if you like.
1. Press the [ V/M ] button, as necessary, to go to the
"Memory" mode. The memory channel number will
appear in the multi-panel window.

DVICE
If you can not enter the "Memory" mode, check to see
if the transceiver is in VFO-B mode (the green [ VFO-
B ( RX )] Indicator/Switch is illuminated). If so, press
the [ VFO-A ( RX )] Indicator/Switch to return operation
to VFO-A. Now, press the [ V/M ] button to enter the
"Memory" mode.
2. Press the [ MCH ] button. The orange LED inside the
switch will light up, indicating that you are ready to
recall a memory channel.
3. Rotate the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob to select the memory
channel the contents of which you wish to transfer to
VFO-A.
4. Press and hold in the [ M A ] button for two seconds,
until you hear the double beep. The data in the selected
memory channel will now be transferred to VFO-A.

This transfer of data to the VFO-A does not affect the origi-
nal contents of the memory channel; this is a "copy" func-
tion that leaves the memory contents unchanged.

Memory Tune Operation

You may freely tune off from any memory channel in a "Memory Tune" mode, this is similar to VFO operation. So long as
you do not over-write the contents of the current memory, Memory Tune operation will not alter the contents of the memory
channel.
1. Press the [ V/M ] button to recall any memory channel.
A :
DVICE
If you can not enter the "Memory" mode, check to see
if the transceiver is in VFO-B mode (the green [ VFO-
B ( RX )] Indicator/Switch is illuminated). If so, press
the [ VFO-A ( RX )] Indicator/Switch to return operation
to VFO-A. Now, press the [ V/M ] button to enter the
"Memory" mode.
2. Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob; you will now ob-
serve that the memory channel's frequency is chang-
ing.
A :
DVICE
The " " icon will replace the "
multi-panel window, indicating you are in the
"Memory Tune" mode.
During Memory Tune operation, you may change
operating modes, and engage the offset Clarifier, if
desired.
3. Press the [ V/M ] button momentarily to return to the
originally memorized frequency of the current memory
channel. One more press of the [ V/M ] button will re-
turn you to VFO operation.

Computer software programs utilizing the CAT system
interface port may presume that the transceiver is operat-
ing in the VFO mode, for certain features like "band map-
ping" and/or frequency logging, because the "Memory
Tune" mode so closely resembles the VFO mode. Be sure
that you have the FT-950 operating in a control mode com-
patible with your software's requirements. Use the VFO
mode if you're not sure.
