Memory Operation; Memory Storage; Storing Independent Trasmit; Frequencies ("Odd Splits") - Vertex Standard VX-150 Operating Manual

Memory Operation

The VX-150 provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include:
199 "Standard" memory channels, numbered " " through "
A Home channel, allowing storage and quick recall of one prime frequency.
Five sets of band-edge memories also known as "Programming Memory Scan" chan-
nels, labeled "
Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any
desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset.
Press and hold the [ F ] key for one second.
Within five seconds of releasing the [ F ] key, rotate the DIAL to select the desired
memory channel number.
Press the [ F ] key once more to store the frequency into memory.
You still will be operating in the "VFO" mode, so you may now enter other frequen-
cies, and store them into additional memory locations, by repeating the above process.

TORING NDEPENDENT
All memories can store an independent transmit frequency, for operation on repeaters with
non-standard shift. To do this:
Store the receive frequency using the method already described under MEMORY STOR-
AGE (it doesn't matter if a repeater offset is active).
Turn to the desired transmit frequency, then press and hold the [ F ] key for 1/2 second.
With in five seconds of releasing the [ F ] key, rotate the DIAL to select the same memory
channel number as used in step
Press and hold the PTT switch, then press the [ F ] key once more momentarily (this
does not key the transmitter).
Whenever you recall a memory which contains independently-stored transmit and re-
ceive frequencies, the "[–][ + ]" indication will appear in the display.
While operating in the VFO mode, press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key. The "
will show that you are now in the Memory Recall mode.
Rotate the DIAL to select the desired channel.
To return to the VFO mode, press the [ VFO ( PRI )] key.
An easy way to recall memories is to key in the memory channel number, then press
[ MR ( SKIP ) ] .
For example, to recall memory channel #16, press [ 1 ] - [ 6 ] - [ MR ( SKIP ) ] .
