186 MEMORY CHANNELSMEMORY CHANNEL GROUPS400 memory channels have been divided into8 groups of 50. Group 0 contains memory channelnumbers 0 ~ 49, group 1 is 50 ~ 99, group 2 is 100 ~149, and so on. You can categorize each group tostore similar data, same frequency bands or samemodes for ease of use.#puorG lennahCyromeM #puorG lennahCyromeM0puorG 94~0 4puorG 942~0021puorG 99~05 5puorG 992~0522puorG 941~001 6puorG 943~0033puorG 991~051 7puorG 993~053RECALLING A MEMORY CHANNEL USINGMEMORY GROUP FUNCTIONIt is sometimes a tedious endeavor to scroll through400 memory channels sequentially. However, using aGroup memory recall function, you can access yourdesired memory channel numbers more quickly.1 Press [MR] to enter Memory Recall mode.2 While pressing and holding [LAMP], turn theTuning control to select a group.• Each click of the Tuning control, the lowestmemory channel number of each group isrecalled. For example, if you have the followingmemory channels that contain data:#puorG ataDniatnoCtahtslennahCyromeM0puorG 0 2 01 51 03 541puorG 05 16 56 87 892puorG 301 111 3213puorG 251 6614puorG5puorG 062 0826puorG 503 223 333 5437puorG 993Memory channels 0, 50, 103, 152, 260, 305, 399,and then 0 are recalled sequentially while pressingand holding [LAMP].3 Release [LAMP] and turn the Tuning control toselect the desired memory channels within theselected group.Note: If you have configured Menu No. 3 (MR METHOD) as“CURRENT BAND” {page 16}, only memory channels that have thesame frequency band data are recalled.ERASING MEMORY CHANNELS USING MEMORYGROUP DELETE FUNCTIONInstead of erasing each unnecessary channel one byone, you can erase an entire group of memorychannels at once. For example, if you erase group 2memory channels, all the data in memory channels100 ~ 149 are erased.1 Press [MR].• Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] toselect a memory channel in the group you wantto erase (for example, memory channelNo. 111, in Group 2).2 Press [ ] (POWER) to turn the transceiver OFF.3 Press [MHz]+[ ] (POWER).• An erase confirmation message appears.4 Press [MR] ([ ] or [MNU]) to proceed.Otherwise, press any other key to cancel theerase.MEMORY CHANNEL TRANSFERMEMORY \ VFO TRANSFERAfter retrieving frequencies and associated data fromMemory Recall mode, you can copy the data to theVFO. This function is useful, for example, when thefrequency you want to monitor is near the frequencystored in a memory channel.1 Press [MR], then turn the Tuning control to recalla desired memory channel.2 Press [F], [VFO] to copy the memory channeldata to the VFO.Note:uTo copy an odd-split channel data {page 15}, turn the Reversefunction ON {page 14} before performing the transfer.uYou can also transfer the Program Scan memory channels(L0/U0 ~ L9/U9), Priority Channels (Pr1 and Pr2), andInformation Channels (I–0 ~ I–9) to the VFO.CHANNEL \ CHANNEL TRANSFERYou can also copy channel information from onememory channel to another. This function is usefulwhen storing frequencies and associated data thatyou temporarily change in Memory Recall mode.1 Press [MR], then turn the Tuning control to recalla desired memory channel.2 Press [F].3 Select the memory channel where you would likethe data copied, using the Tuning control.4 Press [MR] ([ ] or [MNU]).
