Correcting Frequency Readout During Input; Correcting Incorrect Frequencies After Input - AOR AR8000 Operating Manual

right of the "MHz" position, this is to ensure easy recognition of frequencies
which are often listed as "kHz" in frequency guides. Instead, the decimal point
is positioned to the right of the kHz position
Example of frequency entry 1215 kHz (1.215 MHz)
Press [1] [.] [2] [1] [5] [ENT]
The frequency of 1215 kHz is equivalent to 1.215 MHz. The AR8000 expects
frequency entry to be input in "MHz" format. To convert a frequency listed as
kHz into MHz simply move the decimal position three places to the left.

6-5 Correcting frequency readout during input

Should an error be made while entering frequency data (by pressing the wrong
numeric key), it may be corrected using the BACKSPACE facility. This facility
enables rapid correction of errors prior to the completion of entry by the [ENT]
key.
Example of frequency data correction while keying 433.250 MHz
Press [4] [3] [3] [.] [2] then assume [7] by mistake
Press [UP>] and the number "7" clears from the LCD
Press [5] [ENT] to finalise the correct entry.

6-6 Correcting incorrect frequencies after input

If for any reason the currently displayed active VFO frequency is incorrect, it
may be changed by two methods:
Firstly the correct frequency may be input to replace the currently displayed
incorrect frequency, there is no need to clear the VFO data first.
Secondly the frequency data may be "edited" by means of a highlight flashing
cursor.
Example of frequency data correction using the cursor
Start by keying in a frequency to start with:
Press [8] [1] [.] [8] [ENT] to input 81.8 MHz
For this example let's assume that the actual frequency required is 82.9
MHz
Press [FUNC] and then either the [UP] or [DOWN] key to call the
highlight cursor. Initially the flashing highlight cursor appears in the MHz
position.
