Normally, all commonly usedfrequencies including those of local repeaters would besaved in memory channels to eliminate manuallyselecting frequenily-used frequencies.Memory RecallA function that fetches a previously saved operatingfrequency and associated data. See "Memory channel".Memory ScanA function that monitors sequentially all programmedmemory channels that are not locked-out. See “Scan”.Memory StorageA function that saves an operating frequency andassociated data into a memory channel.
