39FT-2900E OPERATING MANUAL
HOME CHANNEL MEMORY
A convenient one-touch “Home” channel memory is available to simplify return to your
most-often-used frequency. This memory does not appear in the regular memory bank, to
simplify operation and speed recall of this important channel.
To recall the Home channel, just press the
[
D/MR
(
MW
)]
key,
repeatedly if necessary, until the “HM” icon appears on the
display; this indicates that the Home Channel has been recalled.
The factory default frequency for the Home channel is 144.000 MHz. You can re-program
the Home channel in a manner identical to that used for the regular memories:
1. From the VFO mode, tune in the frequency you wish to store, and set all repeater shifts
and other data just the way you do for “normal” memory channel storage.
2. Press and hold in the
[
D/MR
(
MW
)]
key for one second, then press the
[
REV
(
DW
)]
key
to store the displayed data into the Home channel. The memory label will disappear
(since you are still operating in the VFO mode).
You may also append an alpha-numeric “Tag” (label) to a Home channel, as described
previously. be sure to recall the Home channel first, then enter the Menu (selection “
30 NM30 NM
30 NM30 NM
30 NM

SET”) to program the label’s contents.
From the Home channel, you may tune off (as in the Memory Tune mode) without doing
anything more than rotating the main DIAL knob. This automatically shifts control to
the VFO, making it a good idea to program in your area’s “Calling Frequency” as the
Home channel. Once contact is established, you may then tune off the Calling Frequency
to an open simplex frequency to carry on your QSO.
