MEMORY GROUPS
Memory channels may be grouped into as many as six convenient batches, for easy identification and selection. For ex-
ample, you might want to designate memory groups for AM BC stations, shortwave broadcast stations, contest frequencies,
repeater frequencies and PMS limits, or any other groupings you like.
Each memory group is capable of holding up to 20 memory channels (except Memory Group 01: it is 19 memory channels,
and the Group size is fixed). When a memory channel is grouped, the channel numbers change to correspond to the chart
below:
