Storing a Frequency into Memory
To store the current frequency you are tuned to into one of the
1000 memory locations in WiNRADiO, you can either click on
the S button in the Memory panel, or press S on the keyboard.
A dialog box will pop up, and present you with a range of
options you can fill in. At the top of the dialog box is the
frequency you are storing (this cannot be edited). The next line is
the next available memory number that is empty (starting with
zero). You can change this to a memory number that you want
(including ones that already are in use).
The next option is the group assignment. You can assign a
frequency to one or more of 16 different groups. You can set up
frequency groups to suit your particular areas of interest, to
distinguish certain types of stations from others.
Another attribute you can store with a frequency is a callsign. You can store up to 9
characters in the callsign.
A hotkey (function keys F2 to F12) can be associated with a frequency, so that when you
press the key, that frequency is instantly recalled. If a hotkey is being used by another
frequency, it will be shown as ‘(used)’, but you can override the previous assignment with a
new one if you wish.
A comment can also be included with a frequency. The size of the comment is limited by the
width of the text entry line. When the receiver is tuned to this frequency, the text display
below the frequency readout will show the frequency’s callsign and comment entered here.
The mode can also be stored, which will be set automatically when the frequency is recalled.
Finally, one other attribute that can be set is whether the memory number is to be excluded
from a memory scan or not. By default the number is not locked out, but can be locked out
by checking Scan lockout.
Recalling a Frequency from Memory
There are several ways to recall a frequency from memory:
• Use a hotkey;
• Type a number into the memory number display;
• Type a number while holding down the Control key;
• Use the memory recall/view dialog box;
• Use memory stepping.
Hotkey
The quickest way to recall a frequency is to assign a function hotkey to it when you initially
store the frequency. Any function key from F2 to F12 can be used. Note that F1 cannot be
used, as it is reserved for help.
If desired, existing memories can be edited to add a function hotkey (see below).
To recall a frequency using a hotkey, simply press the appropriate function key (F2 to F12),
and it will be recalled instantly. This assumes that a frequency has previously been assigned
to that key, of course.
