Channel Naming Function; Channel Name Programming; Usable Characters - Icom IC-M73 Instruction Manual

■ Channel naming function

The IC-M73/IC-M73EURO can assign up to 10-character
channel names for each operating channel, including each
weather channel. This provides easy recognition of the chan-
nel in use, or station names.
When shipped from the factory, the IC-M73/IC-M73EURO is
programmed with default names for each VHF marine chan-
nel. These defaults can be changed, if desired.
