MEMORY FEATURES MICROPROCESSOR MEMORY BACKUP This transceiver uses a lithium battery to retain the userspecified memory items. Switching OFF the power will not erase the Menu setups or memory channels. The lithium battery life is approximately 5 years. If you find the transceiver powers-up with default settings, and VFO and memory channel data is lost, have the lithium battery replaced. Contact an authorized KENWOOD service facility or dealer. CONVENTIONAL MEMORY Conventional memory is used for storing data that you want to recall many times in the future. For example, you may store the frequency where you regularly meet your club members. This transceiver provides 100 Conventional memory channels, in total, numbered 00 to 99. Channels 90 to 99 are designed for programming VFO tuning ranges and scan ranges. The data that you can store is listed below: Parameter RX frequency TX frequency Mode for RX Mode for TX Start/end frequencies Subtone frequency Tone ON/OFF CTCSS ON/OFF Memory Channel Lockout ON/OFF Channel 00 ~ 89 Yes Yes Channel 90 ~ 99 Yes1 (simplex) Yes Yes1 Yes (simplex) No Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes1 Yes1 1 Changing the data after recalling a memory channel overwrites the contents of the channel. STORING DATA IN MEMORY There are 2 methods for storing transmit/receive frequencies and associated data in memory channels 00 to 89. Use either method depending on the relationship of the receive and transmit frequencies that you store: • Simplex channels: RX frequency = TX frequency • Split-frequency channels: RX frequency ≠ TX frequency Memory channels 90 to 99 can also be used as simplex channels. Note: When RIT or XIT is ON, the frequency that includes the RIT or XIT offset will be stored. ■ Simplex Channels 1 Press [A/B] to select VFO A or VFO B. • "t A" or "t B" appears to show which VFO is selected. 2 Select the frequency, mode, etc. to be stored. 3 Press [M.IN] to enter Memory Scroll mode. • To exit Memory Scroll mode and abort the storage process, press [CLR]. 4 Turn the MULTI/CH control, or press Mic [UP] or [DWN] to select a memory channel. • Entering a 2-digit number such as 05 using the numeric keys can also be used to select a channel. 5 Press [M.IN] again to store the data. • The previous data stored in the channel is overwritten. 39
