Copying the Memory Channel Data into VFO Mode
You can copy the frequency of a memory channel into VFO mode. This function
is useful when you want to receive a frequency slightly different from that of a
memory channel or when you edit a memory channel.
1
In Memory mode, select a memory channel to copy its
data into VFO mode.
2
Press the [FUNC] key to display on the LCD.
3
Press the key; the frequency of the memory channel
is copied into VFO mode.
When the copy is complete, the mode changes to VFO mode.
8-12 F Tuning Function
This function allows reception of unknown radio signals by detecting a strong
radio signal and quickly tuning to its frequency. The F Tuning function can be
used in two modes: F COUNT (Frequency counter) and F TUNE (Strong signal-
priority tuning).
• In F COUNT mode, when an extremely strong signal is detected among the
received signals, its frequency is displayed in real time.
• In F TUNE mode, priority is given to detecting an extremely strong signal
among the received signals. A normal scan is then performed around the
frequency of the signal to catch the target signal more quickly and accurately.
Setting the F Tuning function
1
Press the [FUNC] key to display on the LCD.
F COUNT
2
Press the key several times
to select “F COUNT” or “F TUNE”.
3
When “F TUNE” is selected, the
receiver automatically changes
to VFO mode when it detects a
frequency, allowing you to hear
the sound.
4
Press the [FUNC] key to nish the setting.
CAUTION
The operating frequency for F COUNT and F TUNE is within the range
of 50 MHz to 1299.99995 MHz.
This function may not work depending on the frequency condition,
such as when there are radio signals or noise stronger than the target
radio signal.
The resolution of F COUNT is 5 kHz.
The sensitivity may vary depending on the frequency.
