Memory Mode; Memory Storage; Storing Independent Transmit Frequencies - Yaesu VX-5R Operating Manual

Memory Mode

The VX-5R provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include:
¦ 220 "Standard" memory channels, numbered "
¦ A H
channel per band, allowing storage and quick recall of one prime fre-
OME
quency on each band.
¦ Ten sets of band-edge memories also known as "Programming Memory Scan"
channels, labeled "
¦ Five Memory Groups, labeled "
can be assigned 24 channels from the "standard" memory channel bank.
•
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. The power level
may also be set at this time, if you wish to store it.
‚
Press and hold the [ F/W ] key for one second.
ƒ
Within five seconds of releasing the [ F/W ] key, rotate the DIAL to select the desired
memory channel. The microprocessor will automatically select the next-available "free"
channel (a memory register on which no data has been stored). If you see an Asterisk
(Û Û Û Û Û ) by any channel number, it means that the channel currently has no data written on
it (i.e. the channel is "free").
„
Press the [ F/W ] key once more to store the frequency into memory.
...
You still will be operating in the "VFO" mode, so you may now enter other frequen-
cies, and store them into additional memory locations, by repeating the above process.

TORING NDEPENDENT
All memories can store an independent transmit frequency, for operation on repeaters with
non-standard shift. To do this:
•
Store the receive frequency using the method already described under MEMORY
STORAGE (it doesn't matter if a repeater offset is active).
‚
Turn to the desired transmit frequency, then press and hold the [ F/W ] key for one
second.
ƒ
With in five seconds of releasing the [ F/W ] key, rotate the DIAL to select the same
memory channel number as used in step
„
Press and hold the PTT switch then press the [ F/W ] key once more momentarily (this
does not key the transmitter).
Whenever you recall a memory which contains independently-stored trans-
mit and receive frequencies, the "[
play.
