FT-60R/E OPERA TING MANUAL 31
MEMORY MODE
To disable the alpha-numeric Tag (enabling the frequency display), just repeat the above
procedure, rotating the DIAL knob to select “FREQ” in step 5 above.
You may set up some memory channels to have their frequencies displayed,
while others may be set to have their Name Tag displayed; the selection within
Set Mode Item 27 is not applied to all memory channels at once (just the
channel on which you currently are operating).
MEMOR Y OFFSET TUNING
Once you have recalled a particular memory channel, you may easily tune off that chan-
nel, as though you were in the “VFO” mode.
1. With the FT-60R/E in the “MR” (Memory Recall) mode, se-
lect the desired memory channel.
2. Press the
[
BAND
(
BAND DN
)]
key momentarily to activate
the “Memory Tuning” feature. The Memory Channel number
will be replaced by “tun.” And if you have an alpha-numeric
Tag displayed on the memory channel, the display will auto-
matically revert to display of the operating frequency, so you
can navigate without having to enter the Menu to change the
display configuration.
3. Rotate the DIAL knob, as desired, to tune to a new frequency.
The synthesizer steps selected for VFO operation on the cur-
rent band will be the steps used during Memory Tuning.
4. If you wish to return to the original memory frequency, just press the
[
BAND
(
BAND
DN
)]
key momentarily. The display will revert to display of the alpha-numeric Tag (if
any) that may have originally appeared on the LCD.
5. If you wish to store a new frequency set during Memory Tuning, just press and hold
in the
[
F/W
]
key for one second, per normal memory storage procedure. The micro-
processor will automatically set itself to the next-available clear memory location,
and you then press
[
F/W
]
again to lock in the new frequency.
1) If you want to replace the original memory contents with those of the new
frequency, be sure to rotate the DIAL knob to the original memory channel
number!
2) Any required CTCSS/DCS changes, or repeater offset modifications, must be done
before storing the data into the new (or original) memory channel location.
