                   Frequently used frequencies and settings can be saved in the memory so that you can
                   quickly and conveniently operate on present channel. The radio is also equipped with
                   the following memory functions:
                     ·· Skips memory channels that you do not wish to receive during scanning ( P.77)
                     ·· Scans only the specified memory channels ( P.76)
                     ·· “Programmable Memory Scan (PMS)” that scans only the specified frequency range
                        (in the same frequency band) ( P.79)
                   The operating frequency and other operational information can be registered to each
                   regular memory channel, home channel, or PMS memory channel:
                     • Operating frequency           • Memory tag             • Repeater information
                     • Tone information              • DCS information        • Transmission power
                     • Memory skip information
                   (The operating mode information is not registered to the memory channels)

                   Writing to the memory
                   Tip
                    The information saved in the memory may be lost due to incorrect operation, static electricity or
                    electrical noise. Data may also be lost due to component failures and repairs. Make sure to write
                    down the information registered in the memories on a piece of paper or by using a micro-SD card.



                   A total of 500 channel memories each, can be used for Band A and Band B.

Tips
    • When shipped from the factory, the frequency in memory channel 1 of Band A is set to 144.000 MHz
      while the frequency in memory channel 1 of Band B is set to 430.000 MHz. These can be changed
      to other frequencies but cannot be erased.
    • Names can also be assigned to the memory channels ( P.66).
    • 9 pairs of PMS memory channels can be written for Band A and Band B each ( P.79).
