contains ninety-nine regular
memories, labeled 1-1 through 1-99, nine special
programmed limit memories, labeled P I through
P9, and five QMB (Quick Memory Bank) memo-
ries, labeled C1 -C5. Each stores a pair of fre-
quencies and modes, plus widelbarrow IF
selections (for CW and AM modes), clarifier onloff
and offset settings, plus split frequency status. By
default, the 99 regular memories are contained in
one group; however, they can be arranged in up
to 5 separate groups if desired.
Like VFO operation, you can freely tune and
change the mode or clarifier settings and you can
also copy settings from one memory to another. In
,fact, you can do nearly anything with a memory
that you can with the VFOs, except for the special
PMS memories (PI -PO), described later.

Pressing this activates memory checking

contents of memory channels in the right SUB
VFO-B display.
Memory Programming
Memory programming allows storing your fa-
vorite or often-used frequencies into memory
channels for long-term storage and quick recall.
The FT-1000MP memories are retained after
power-off by a long-life lithium backup battery that
should not need to replaced for more than 5
years. Should you expect to not use your trans-
ceiver for extended periods, you can switch off the
backup battery via the rear panel switch to con-
serve lithium backup battery life (see page 101).
Copying VFO-A Data to Selected Memory
You can store the frequency and all operational
settings for the displayed VFO into a memory
channel by following this simple procedure:
CJ
Set up all operating parameters and frequency
as desired on MAIN VFO-A.
t 3 Rotate the
MEMNFO CH
knob to select the mem-
ory channel to fill ( will start blinking).
t3
Then, within 3 seconds ( still blinking), hold
for 112 second so that two beeps sound.
The VFO contents are now stored in the se-
lected memory channel and you are left operat-
ing on the VFO.
Copying a Selected Memory to VFO-A
Likewise you can store the frequency and all
operational settings for the selected memory
channel into MAIN VFO-A.
Normally, you must manually increment the
channel number when programming
consecutive memories. If you would like to
save time and have the channel number
automatically increment after writing each
memory, this can be enabled in menu
