Switching The Operating Data Between Config A And Config B; Menu Items - Kenwood TS-990S Instruction Manual

3 MENU
SWITCHING THE OPERATING DATA BETWEEN CONFIG
A AND CONFIG B
Parameters configured in the menu and various
configurations for operation are jointly called the operating
environment. The transceiver has CONFIG A and CONFIG
B as two separate environments. Both contain the same
configuration items, allowing you to configure them
individually. For example, CONFIG A might be configured
for DX hunting and CONFIG B for rag-chewing, and you
can quickly switch from one to another.
1 Press [MENU] to open the Menu screen.
2 Press [CONFIG] (F7).
3 Press [OK] (F4) to switch CONFIG A to CONFIG B.
After changing the configuration, you can immediately
operate the transceiver with the new configuration enabled.
Pressing [CANCEL] (F7) reverts to the Menu screen.
