Checking A Memory Channel's Status; Erasing Memory Channel Data - Yaesu FTdx5000MP Operating Manual

Checking a Memory Channel's Status

Before programming a channel into memory, you can check the current contents of that channel without the danger of
overwriting the channel accidentally.
1. Press the [ A M ] button briefly.
The data stored in the currently-selected memory chan-
nel will be displayed in the SUB DISPLAY- win-
dow. However, since you are only checking the con-
tents of the memory channel, your radio will not have
moved to the memory channel's frequency.
2. Rotate the [ CLAR ( VFO-B )] knob to select a different
memory channel. To exit from the Memory Check
mode, press the [ A M ] button briefly, once more.

While the Memory Check function is engaged, the
memory channel number will blink in the multi-panel
window.
While operating in the VFO mode, using Memory
Check, you may store the current contents of the VFO-
A register into the selected memory by pressing and
holding in the [ A M ] button for two seconds (listen
for the double beep). Conversely, if you wish to write
the contents of the current memory into the VFO-A
register, press and hold in the [ M A ] button for two
seconds.
