FT-250R O PERATING M ANUAL18The FT-250R provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include:P 199 “Standard” memory channels, numbered “11111” through “199199199199199.”P A Home channel, allowing storage and quick recall of one prime frequency.P Five sets of band-edge memories also known as “Programming Memory Scan” chan-nels, labeled “L1L1L1L1L1/U1U1U1U1U1” through “L5L5L5L5L5/U5U5U5U5U5”MEMORY S TORAGEc Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up anydesired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset.d Press and hold in the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key for one second.e Within five seconds of releasing the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key, rotate the DIAL to selectthe desired memory channel number.f Press the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key once more to store the frequency into memory.g You still will be operating in the “VFO” mode, so you may now enter other frequen-cies, and store them into additional memory locations, by repeating the above process.STORING I NDEPENDENT T RANSMIT F REQUENCIES (“O DD S PLITS ”)All memories can store an independent transmit frequency, for operation on repeaterswith non-standard shift. To do this:c Store the receive frequency using the method already described under MEMORY STOR-AGE (it doesn’t matter if a repeater offset is active).d Turn to the desired transmit frequency, then press and hold the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key forone second.e Within five seconds of releasing the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key, rotate the DIAL to selectthe same memory channel number as used in step c above.f Press and hold the PTT switch. Then while holding the PTT switch in, momentarilypress the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key once more (this does not key the transmitter).Whenever you recall a memory which contains independently-stored transmit and re-ceive frequencies, the “[–][+]” indication will appear in the display.The “Odd Splits” feature permits setting TONE/DCS individually for transmit and re-ceive. Briefly, press the [F/L] key, and then press the [2(CODE)] key. Rotate the DIALknob to select the TONE or DCS for receive. You can confirm the Transmit and receiveTONE/DCS by alternately pressing of the [REV(HOME)] key.MEMORY R ECALLc While operating in the VFO mode, press the [MR/MW(SKIP)] key. The “MRMRMRMRMR” indica-tor will show that you are now in the Memory Recall mode.d Rotate the DIAL to select the desired channel.e To return to the VFO mode, press the [VFO(PRI)] key.An easy way to recall memories is to key in the memory channel number, then press[MR/MW(SKIP)].For example, to recall memory channel #16, press [1]-[6]-[MR/MW(SKIP)].Memory Operation
