ERASING MEMORY CHANNELS CALL CHANNEL
Although it is possible to overwrite existing data in any of
the memory channels with new data, at times you may
wish to clear data from memory channels without
entering new data. It’s convenient to clear channels no
longer used so you can identify channels that are free for
memorizing new frequencies. Memory channels that
contain no data cannot be recalled while in Memory
Recall.
1 Press [MR] to select Memory Recall.
2 Select the desired memory channel using the Tuning
control or microphone [UP]/[DWN].
3 Press [F] + [MR].
• The contents of the memory channel are erased.
Note: Memory channel i cannot be erased.
The Call channel can be used to store any frequency
that can be selected on your transceiver that you wish to
make your main operating frequency. The Call channel
can be programmed with a simplex frequency or a split
frequency. No matter what mode the transceiver is in,
the Call channel always can be selected quickly. You
may wish to dedicate the Call channel on a group-wide
basis as an emergency channel only to be used for
urgent communications. In this case, one of the Call
channel scans {page 61} will be useful.
■ Recalling Call Channel
Press microphone [CALL] to retrieve the contents of
the Call channel.
• "C" appears on the Display.
• If [CALL] is pressed again, "C" clears and the
previous mode is restored. •
• The Tuning control and microphone [UP]/[DWN]
do not function while the Call channel is selected.
