5-5-1 Memory channel editing

It is possible to copy, move, swap and edit memory channels to assist the management of data.
Please refer to section 9 of this manual regarding the EDIT menu.

5-5-2 Adding text names to memory banks

To assist with memory management and identification, memory banks can be named. The SCAN BANK
menu is used to add or edit memory bank names.
To access the SCAN BANK menu
legend "M-BANK", the currently selected memory bank 'pair' (i.e. D/d or A/a or C/c etc) and the current
size allocation for the bank displayed i.e. B:50 b:50 for memory bank "B/b" with the allocation of 50
channels for "B" and 50 channels for "b", this split of 50/50 being the default.
Use the main dial,
the key to move to the "BANK TEXT" menu.
Use the keys to move between upper and lower bank identifiers, add text using the main dial and
keys or use the keypad. To save the data and exit the menu

5-6 Transfer of memory channel to VFO

While in memory read, should you wish to tune away from the memory channel and benefit from not
having to re-enter the frequency, mode etc, the data may be quickly transferred from memory to 'VFO'
mode.
To transfer memory channel data to VFO simply
"VFO" along with receive frequency, receive mode, tuning step size and other relevant information such
as attenuator, noise limiter and AFC status. You may monitor the frequency or tune away from it using
the main dial or

5-7 Dynamic memory bank resizing

The lettered memory banks are regarded as a 'pair' making a total of 100 memory channels per bank,
initially equally divided between the upper and lower case letters. For example memory bank "A" will
have 50 channels numbered from 00 to 49 (A00 - A49) and memory bank "a" will also have 50 channels
numbered from 00 to 49 (a00 - a49) making a total of 100 channels.
It is possible to reallocate the 100 channels in blocks of 10 channels between the same letters A/a, B/b,
C,c etc This means that the initial 50/50 may be reallocated as 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, 90/10, or 10/90,
20/80, 30/70, 40/60. This 'dynamic' memory reallocation can be useful to optimise the memory layout
where a large or small collection of frequencies need to be monitored without unnecessarily wasting
memory banks with just a few channels occupied.
The SCAN BANK menu is used to customise many features including memory bank resizing.
