Naming A Memory Channel - Kenwood TH-F6A Instruction Manual

NAMING A MEMORY CHANNEL

You can name memory channels using up to 8
alphanumeric characters. When you recall a named
memory channel, its name appears on the display in
place of the stored frequency. Names can be call
signs, repeater names, cities, names of people, etc.
1 Press [MR] to recall your desired memory
channel.
2 Press [F], [MN<->f] to enter memory name input
mode.
• The entry cursor appears.
3 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
the first character.
• You can enter alphanumeric characters plus
special ASCII characters. Refer to the
following table for the available characters.
• Press [MONI] to delete the character at the
cursor position.
• You can also use the numeric keypad to enter
a character (Special ASCII characters are not
available). For example, each press of [2]
switches entry as a, b, c, 2, A, B, C and then
back to a.
• While pressing and holding [LAMP], turn the
Tuning control to jump to the first character of
each ASCII character group.
4 Press [ ].
• The cursor moves to the next digit.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 to enter up to 8 digits.
• Pressing [ ] after selecting the 8th digit
completes the programming.
• To complete programming before entering less
than 8 digits, press [MNU] or press [ ] twice.
• Press [ ] to move the cursor back.
• Press [PTT] ([F], [VFO], [MR], or [CALL]) to
cancel the entry.
After storing a memory name, pressing [MN<->f]
switches the display between the memory name and
the frequency.
Note:
You can also name the DTMF memory channels {page 31} and
Information Channels {page 20} but you cannot name the Call
channel {page 19}.
You cannot assign a memory name to a channel that does not
contain data.
You can overwrite stored names by repeating steps 1 to 5.
The stored name is erased when you clear the memory channel
data.
