MEMORY OPERATION
QMB
(
QUICK MEMORY BANK
)
The Quick Memory Bank consists of five memories (labeled “C-1” through “C-5.”) independent from the regular and PMS
memories. These can quickly store operating parameters for later recall.
QMB Channel Storage
1. Tune to the desired frequency on VFO-A.
2. Press the blue
[
STO
]
button briefly. The
“beep” will confirm that the contents of
VFO-A have been written to the currently
available QMB memory.
3 If you repeatedly press the
[
STO
]
button, the QMB
memories will be written in the following order:
C-2 C-3 C-4 C-5 C-1
......
Once all five QMB memories have data in them, previous
data (starting with channel “C-1”) will be over-written, on
a first-in, first-out basis.
QMB Channel Recall
1. Press the blue
[
RCL
]
button briefly. The
current QMB channel data will be shown
on the VFO-A frequency display field,
and the QMB memory channel num-
ber will appear in the small window at
the lower right corner of the display.
2. Repeatedly pressing the
[
RCL
]
button will rotate
through the QMB channels:
C-2 C-3 C-4 C-5 C-1
......
3. Press the
[
V/M
]
button briefly, to return to the VFO or
Memory mode.
ADVICE:
Rotating the Main Tuning Dial knob, or changing the op-
erating mode will place the transceiver in the “Memory
Tune” mode. This is a temporary “pseudo-VFO” method
of tuning off of a stored memory channel. If you do not
over-write the contents of the current memory channel,
the original contents will not be disturbed by the initiation
of Memory Tune operation.
