Memory Functions 9
This receiver contains 100 memories (00-99) that can
be used to store and recall commonly monitored
frequencies. The following operating parameters are
also stored with any memory channel:
1) Frequency 2) Mode 3) Synchronous Detector
NOTE: Some of the 100 memory channels are factory
programmed to help the user get started.
MEMORY CHANNEL RECALLING
To recall any of the 100 memory channels of the SW2,
simply press the
MEM
VFO
button, the MEM LED will
light and the receiver will tune to the last used memory
channel or default to channel 00. A channel number
can be accessed directly, by entering the desired two
digit channel number. A channel number can also be
accessed by scrolling through the channels with either
the tuning wheel and or the / buttons. While
scrolling though the channels the receiver continues to
tune to that frequency and the mode settings for that
channel.
NOTE: While scrolling through memory channels , if a
channel is empty, it will be skipped numerically.
If it is desired to return the receiver to the frequency
tuned in the VFO mode, simply press the
MEM
VFO
button and the receiver returns to VFO mode and
MEMORY RECALL mode is exited. However, if it is
desired to load that memory channel into the VFO,
press and hold the
MEM
VFO
button. The channel will be
loaded and MEMORY RECALL mode will be exited. At
this point, the receiver can once again be tuned. The
MEM
VFO
button or the
CLEAR
button can be used to exit
MEMORY RECALL mode if that mode is entered
accidentally or it is desired to exit MEMORY RECALL.
The
CLEAR
button is also used to erase mistakes made
during direct entry of a memory channel.
To Erase Memory Channels - While in MEMORY
RECALL mode, simply pick a memory channel to erase.
Press and hold the
CLEAR
button until the channel is
removed from the display. The receiver will change to
the next ascending available memory channel.
MEMORY CHANNEL PROGRAMMING
First, be certain that the receiver is in VFO mode (MEM
is not lit). Then tune the receiver to the frequency to
be stored as a memory channel. Press and hold the
MEM
VFO
button for at least two seconds or until MEM
lights and the memory channel showing -- is flashing.
The receiver is now in the MEMORY STORE mode. If it
is known into which memory channel number the
desired frequency is to be stored, simply enter the two
digit location. Upon entry of the second digit, the SW2
will flash what is currently stored in that memory
channel (if it is not desired to store the channel at this
time, press the
CLEAR
button and the SW2 will return to
the original MEMORY STORE mode display). To store
the chosen channel, press the
MEM
VFO
button and the
SW2 will scroll the desired frequency into the display
and store the frequency and all of the current mode
settings.
If unsure of where to store a frequency, (while in
MEMORY STORE mode), simply scroll through all of
the memory channels and their current contents by
using the tuning wheel and or the / buttons. All
information will flash in the display while scrolling.
NOTE: Empty memory channels are displayed as blanks
in the frequency display section with only the memory
channel number flashing. Once a suitable channel
location is found, simply press the
MEM
VFO
button and
the frequency is scrolled into the display and all
information is stored. NOTE: While scrolling through all
the memory channels and looking for a suitable location,
the SW2 is NOT tuning to the stored contents of the
memory channels, and the audio of the desired fre-
quency remains unchanged. The
CLEAR
button is used to
exit MEMORY STORE mode if it is accidentally entered
or upon exiting the mode. The
CLEAR
button is also used
to erase errors made during direct entry of a memory
channel.
HELPFUL TIPS FOR MEMORY CHANNEL
OPERATION
The following helpful tips for memory channel operation
may be useful to the novice shortwave listener.
1) Put all of the favorite stations in the first 20 memory
channels (00-19).
2) Place all AM broadcast stations together in a desig-
nated section of memory channels, while placing
shortwave stations in another section.
3) Place shortwave or amateur frequencies into a
location that corresponds with their meter designator.
For example, shortwave stations found in the 75 meter
band (3900-4000kHz) could be placed into memory
locations 70-79.
4) Place all meter band designator locations with leading
frequencies in memory channels corresponding to their
meter band designators. For example, use memory
channel 19 to store 15100 kHz. This will allow quick
access to the beginning of the 19 meter band.
