EMORY SCAN
(

)
This feature allows you to set sub-band limits for either scanning or manual VFO operation.
For example, you might with to set up a limit (in North America) of 144.300 MHz to 148.000
MHz so as to prevent encroachment into the SSB/CW “Weak Signal” portion of the band
below 144.300 MHz. Here’s how to do this:
1. Set the radio to the VFO mode by pressing the
[
V/M
(
MW
)]
key, if necessary.
2. Using the techniques learned earlier, store 144.300 MHz into Memory Channel “L1
(the “L” designates the Lower sub-band limit).
3. Likewise, store 148.000 MHz into Memory Channel “U1” (the “U” designates the Up-
per sub-band limit).
4. Switch to the Memory mode by pressing the
[
V/M
(
MW
)]
key once, then rotate the DIAL knob to select Memory
Channel “L1.”
5. Press the
[
BAND
(
SEL
)]
key momentarily to start PMS
operation; the “ ” label will appear on the display.
Tuning and scanning (engaged by pressing the
[
SCAN
(
SEL
)]
key momentarily) will now be limited within the just-programmed range.
6. Fifty pairs of Band Limit memories, labeled L1/U1 through L50/U50, are available.
You therefore can set upper and lower operation limits on a number of bands, if you like.
