Opera tion
After programming many memories, you may
have tagged specific ones to be skipped
during scanning. Should you later change
your mind and want to scan all of them again,
you don't have to go back and re-enable each
tagged one (there's an easier way).
Recall menu function 2-6 and change the
"Scan All" setting from off to on. The memory
tags are still retained, but ignored when this
setting is turned on. To return to selective
scanning, simply change the setting to "off".
Memory "Masking"
You may want to hide some memories from
operation, to simplify selection of others. To mask
a displayed memory, while JMEM) is displayed,
press and hold for ?h second until the double
beep sounds. But be careful: if you do this instead
while ( M E ) is displayed
-
that is, after retuning
the memory, the retuned data will overwrite the
original memory data, but it will not be masked.
So, if you have re-tuned the memory and don't
want to save the changes, cancel them first by
pressing
E l
once, and then hold
In-Mi
for ?h
second. No frequency digits appear for masked
memories - just the two decimal points remain.
Masked memories are also skipped during
scanning. If you don't overwrite a masked mem-
ory, you can unmask it simply by repeating the
same procedure you used to mask it.
Programmed Memory Scanning
PMS Memories P I
-
P9
To limit scanning (or tuning) to within a parficu-
lar frequency range, you can use Programmed
Memory Scanning (PMS) provided with nine spe-
cial-purpose memories (PI
-
P9). First, store the
upper and lower frequency limits of the range in a
consecutive pair of PMS memories (i.e., P I & P2,
P2 & P3, etc). For example, P2 might contain the
lower edge and P3 the upper. Next recall the first
memory of the pair that hold the range you want
to scan or tune, then nudge the main VFO knob
to activate memory tuning ( appears). Tuning
and scanning are now within the limits of the
selected PMS memory pair, keeping operation
inside this programmed range.

Ex: Limit tuning &scanning to the 17-m band.
O Press iY.B,.1 as necessary, to display ivFo). Tune
to the low edge of the 17-m band: 18.068 MHz
and select the desired mode (here, USBI CW).
CI Rotate the
MEMNFO CH
knob and select mem-
ory P I . Then (while is still blinking) hold
JA.M] for ?h sec. to write the VFO into P I .
O Press

to select the VFO, tune to the high
edge of the 17-m band (18.168 MHz), then
select the desired mode.
0 Rotate the
MEMNFQ CH
knob, then select mem-
ory P2. Hold
I m I
for '/2 sec. to write the VFO
into P2. Now recall memory P I , and turn the
tuning knob (to activate memory tuning).
Tuning and scanning are now limited to the
18.068- to 18.1 68-MHz range until you press
E l
to return to memory channel operations,
In.M1
to
copy the displayed frequency to a memory, or
E l
to write the displayed frequency to a VFO.
While scanning the VFO or a retuned memory,
you can have the FT-1000MP automatically
write active channels into memories for later
recall and scanning. As scanning pauses on
activity, frequency information is written into
available memories in Group 1, or all enabled
groups, until full. You can leave scanning
unattended, if desired, then return later to
recall and check memories for station activity.
To enable this feature, recall menu function
2-5, and select GROUP 1, ALL GROUPS, or
OFF. Follow the procedures outlined for VFO
Scanning, Memory Tuning, and also review
the descriptions for Scan Resume Modes.
Remember that for scanning to stop on
activity, the squelch must be closed.
