48 FT-817ND Operating ManualMEMORY OPERATION ON “HOME” CHANNEL MEMORIESFour Special one-touch “Home” channels are available, for special frequencies you useoften. Either “simplex” or “split” frequency/mode data may be stored in the “Home” chan-nel locations. Special “Home” channels are available for HF (any frequency between 1.8and 29.7 MHz), 50 MHz, 144 MHz, and 430 MHz.These memories may prove particularly useful for monitoring propagation beacons, provid-ing one-touch recall of the beacon frequency for a quick check of band conditions.HOME Channel Storage1. Tune the desired frequency, and set the operating mode. If this is an FM channel, set upany required CTCSS/DCS and repeater shift configurations.2.
