Masking Memories - Yaesu VX-3E Operating Manual

M
EMORY
There may be situations where you want to "Mask" memories so they are not visible during
memory selection or scanning. For example, several memories used only in a city you visit
infrequently may be stored, then "Masked" until you visit that city, at which time you can
"Unmask" them for normal use (except for Memory Channel "1").
1. Press the [ V/M ] key, if needed, to enter the MR mode.
2. Press and hold in the [ F/W ] key for 1/2 seconds, then rotate the
DIAL knob to select the memory channel to be "Masked" from
view.
Note: Do not forget to pull the DIAL knob to rotate the DIAL
knob.
3. Press the [ ] key. The confirmation massage (M-DEL?) will ap-
pear on the display. Press the [ F/W ] key to cancel the Masking
Memory procedure, if desired.
4. Press the [ ] key once more. The display will revert to memory
channel #1. If you rotate the DIAL knob to the location you just "Masked," you will
observe that it is now invisible.
To Unmask the hidden memory, repeat the above procedure. Press and hold in the [ F/W ]
key for 1/2 seconds, rotate the DIAL knob to select the masked memory's number, then
press the [ ] key to restore the memory channel's data.
Watch out! You can manually store data over a "Masked" memory, deleting
previous data, if you're not careful. Use the "next available memory" tech-
nique storage technique to avoid over-writing a masked memory.
