[. . . ] Memory storage is simple to accomplish: Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset. While the memory channel number is blinking, just press the [HM (PRI)] key. The frequency and other data (if any) will now be stored in the special HOME channel register. To recall the HOME channel, press the [HM(PRI)] key momentarily while operating in the VFO or MR mode. LABELING MEMORIES You may wish to append an alpha-numeric "Tag" (label) to a memory or memories, to aid in recollection of the channel's use (such as a club name, etc. ). This is easily accomplished using the Set mode. Recall the memory channel on which you wish to append a label. Press the [F ] key, then press the [M/V(SET)] key, to enter the Menu mode. Press the [F] key, then press the [F] key again, to begin entry of the label. When you have made your selection, press the[s] key momentarily to move to the next character. Repeat the previous step to program the remaining letters, numbers, or symbols of the desired label. When you have completed the creation of the label, press the [F] key, then press the PTT key to save the label and exit to normal operation. To activate Alphanumeric Tags: Press the [F ] key, then press the [M/V(SET)] key, to enter the Set mode. When you have made your selection, press the PTT key to save the new setting and exit to normal operation. VX-110 OPERATING MANUAL 19 Memory Operation MASKING MEMORIES There may be situations where you want to "Mask" memories so they are not visible during memory selection or scanning. For example, several memories used only in a city you visit infrequently may be stored, then "Masked" until you visit that city, at which time you can "Unmask" them for normal use. Press the [M/V(SET)] key, if needed, to enter the MR mode. Press and hold in the [F] key for 1/2 second, then rotate the DIAL to select the memory channel to be "Masked" from view. If you rotate the DIAL to the location you just "Masked, " you will observe that it is now invisible. To Unmask the hidden memory, repeat the above procedure: press and hold in the [F] key for 1/2 second, rotate the DIAL to select the masked memory's number, then press [M/V(SET)] to restore the memory channel's data. MEMORY ONLY MODE This allows operation only on stored memories, which are displayed by name (if any) at the right, and the memory channel number to the left. No frequency is displayed, and only "CH. nn" will appear if you haven't assigned an Alphanumeric name to a memory. Repeater shift and tone setting indicators are displayed in the Memory Only mode, although they cannot be changed. Here is the procedure for activating the Memory Only mode: Turn the radio off. Repeat the previous step to return to normal operation. 20 VX-110 OPERATING MANUAL Scanning The VX-110 allows you to scan just the memory channels, the operating band, or a portion of that band. It will halt on signals encountered, so you can talk to the station(s) on that frequency, if you like. Before you begin, take a moment to select the way in which you would like the scanner to resume scanning after it halts on a signal. Setting the Scan Resume Technique Three options for the Scan-Resume mode are available: 5 SEC: In this mode, the scanner will halt on a signal it encounters, and will hold there for 5 seconds.
