SCRATCH PAD MEMORY

What is a scratch pad memory?

During VFO operation, the transceiver automatically memo-
rizes operating frequency information, separate from regular
memory channels, when transmitting on a new frequency.
There are 2 types of scratch pad memories, those for simplex
operation, L1–L5, and those for duplex (repeater) operation,
R1–R5. These memories can be conveniently recalled.

Calling up a scratch pad
memory
q Push [M/C] to select the call channel.
• Push [CHG/L] if [M/C] is not displayed.
• "C" appears when the call channel is selected.
w Rotate the desired band's tuning dial to select a scratch
pad memory.
• Previously transmitted frequency and one of "L1–L5" appears for
simplex memories (rotate tuning dial left); one of "R1–R5" ap-
pears for duplex memories (rotate tuning dial right).
• When first applying power or after CPU resetting, scratch pad
memories contain no data and therefore cannot be selected.
e Push [V/M
] or [M/C] to exit the scratch pad memory.

• The 5th scratch pad memory (L5 or R5) will be cleared
when transmitting on a new frequency. If the transmit fre-
quency is already stored in a scratch pad memory, the
scratch pad memory is not cleared but the order is
changed.
• When transmitting on a scratch pad memory, that memory
becomes the 1st scratch pad memory (L1 or R1) and the
order is changed.
