The same procedure for copying VFO-A into memo-

ries is also used to copy one memory to another. Like
VFO-A, one memory can be selectively copied; how-
ever, there are a few differences.

To copy from one memory to another (including PMS

memories), first activate memory tuning by simply turn-
ing the VFO dial so that “M-TUNE” appears (and then
tuning back to the desired frequency). Rotate the VRF/
MEM CH
knob to select a memory to fill, then (within 3
seconds) press [A

u

M] to copy the contents from the

re-tuned (source) memory to the destination memory.

The 99 regular memories and PMS memories

P1~P9 can be grouped among up to five memory
banks, if desired. Memory grouping is configured by
menu selections 0-1 through 0-5.

By default, Group 1 is filled with all memories;

Groups 2~5 are disabled (empty). Group 2 is enabled
by not filling group 1 to capacity, and carrying over the
extra memories, and so on. You could fill Group 1 with
memories 1~20, for example, and carry over memo-
ries 21~99 and P1~P9 to Group 2, or else you can
apportion them among Groups 2~5, as desired. Re-
member that to carry over memories from one group
to the next, the preceding group must not be filled to
capacity (i.e., the group holding memory channel P9 is
the last enabled group).

Limiting Memory Group Operation

If you have assigned filled memories into more than

one group (as explained on the previous page), you
can enable a particular group and limit memory recall
and scanning operation (covered later) only to those
memories in that selected group, if so desired.

To do this, simply rotate the VRF/MEM CH knob so

that any memory channel number in the desired group
is displayed, then press the [M GRP] button just above
and to the left (see box below). The “GROUP” indica-
tor appears and you will find that only memories within
that group are now available for recall and operation.

Notice

Regarding the VRF/MEM CH Knob

When the VRF feature is engaged, the VRF/MEM
CH
knob tunes the passband of the narrow input
“Preselector” filter. During Memory operation, to
enable memory channel selection, press the VRF/
MEM CH
knob momentarily; rotation of the knob
will now allow you to select other memories. And if
you want to enter the “Memory Tune” mode and
step around in channelized steps (per the setting
of menu selection 1-5), press and hold in the VRF/
MEM CH
knob for ½ second.
