Memory System Operation

To store a frequency into memory:
(1) In the VFO mode, select the desired frequency, repeater shift, CTCSS tone, and TX
power level.
(2) Press and hold in the [D/MR] key for one second. A memory number (or letters and
numbers) will appear (blinking) on the display.
(3) Within five seconds of pressing the [D/MR] key, use the Main Dial knob or the
microphone's [UP]/[DWN] buttons to select the desired memory for storage (if the
channel is already occupied by data stored previously, the USD notation will appear to
the right of the blinking channel number).
(4) Press the [D/MR] key again, this time momentarily, to store the displayed data into the
selected memory channel slot. The memory label will stop blinking, and the display
will now be blank, except for a blinking digit at the left side of the display. If you wish
to append a name to the just-memorized channel, move quickly to the next step.
Note: If the left digit quits blinking, this indicates that the Alpha-Numeric Storage Timer
has expired. The frequency data will not be lost if this happens, however.

(1) While the right-most digit is still blinking in step (4) above, rotate the Main Dial knob
to select the first character in the name you wish to store, then press the [D/MR] key to
move on to the next character. Letters (both upper and lower case), numbers, and
symbols are available for storage.
(2) Again rotate the Main Dial knob to select the desired number, letter, or symbol, then
press the [D/MR] key to move on to the next character's slot.
(3) Repeat step (2) as many times as necessary to complete the name tag for the memory,
then press and hold in the [D/MR] key for one second to save the A/N (Alpha-Nu-
meric) name entry and exit to normal operation.
Note: If you wish to append a label to a memory after the Alpha-Numeric Storage Timer
has expired, first recall the memory channel (see below), then press the [MHz] key
for one second to enter the M
#01 (ALPH), then press the [MHz] key momentarily. You will now be ready to begin
with step (1) above.
