SCRATCH PAD MEMORY
■ What is a scratch pad memory?
During VFO operation, the transceiver automatically memo-
rizes operating frequency information, separate from regular
memory channels, when transmitting on a new frequency.
There are 2 types of scratch pad memories, those for simplex
operation, L1–L5, and those for duplex (repeater) operation,
R1–R5. These memories can be conveniently recalled.
When memory mode is selected, the frequency is not pro-
grammed into a scratch pad.
■ Calling up a scratch pad
memory
q Push [M/C] to select the call channel.
• Push [CHG/L] if [M/C] is not displayed.
• “C” appears when the call channel is selected.
w Rotate the desired band’s tuning dial to select a scratch
pad memory.
• Previously transmitted frequency and one of “L1–L5” appears for
simplex memories (rotate tuning dial left); one of “R1–R5” ap-
pears for duplex memories (rotate tuning dial right).
• When first applying power or after CPU resetting, scratch pad
memories contain no data and therefore cannot be selected.
e Push [V/M
H
] or [M/C] to exit the scratch pad memory.
• The 5th scratch pad memory (L5 or R5) will be cleared
when transmitting on a new frequency. If the transmit fre-
quency is already stored in a scratch pad memory, the
scratch pad memory is not cleared but the order is
changed.
• When transmitting on a scratch pad memory, that memory
becomes the 1st scratch pad memory (L1 or R1) and the
order is changed.
