ROGRAMMABLE
This feature allows you to set sub-band limits for either scanning or manual VFO opera-
tion. For example, you might wish to set up a limit (in North America) of 144.300 MHz to
148.000 MHz, 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 ] key, if necessary.
2. Using the techniques learned earlier in the above procedures, store 144.300 MHz into
Memory Channel #L1
3. Likewise, store 148.000 MHz into Memory Channel #U1
Upper sub-band limit).
4. Set the radio to the Memory mode by pressing the [ V/M ] key.
5. Press and hold in the [ BAND ] key for one second and rotate the
DIAL knob while holding in the [ BAND ] key to select the de-
sired PMS frequency pair (PMSxx
key to initiate the Programmable (Band Limit) Memory Scan.
The Memory Channel number will be replaced by "Pxx
and scanning will now be limited within the just-programmed
range.
Note: Do not forget to pull the DIAL knob to rotate the DIAL knob.
6. 50 pairs of Band Limit memories, labeled L1
therefore can set upper and lower operation limits on a number of bands, if you like.
