Now press the [FUNC] key; while holding it in, rotate the DIAL one click clockwise to move on to the next digit. Now press the [FUNC] key; while holding it in, rotate the DIAL one click clockwise to move on to the next digit. Press the [V/M] key while pressing the [FUNC] key to save the alpha-numeric information. Now, press the [V/M] key once more while still holding in the [FUNC] key. "WRITE" will appear of the display, to confirm that the frequency data was successfully stored. You still are operating in the VFO mode, and you may store other channel frequencies into other memory channel registers in the same manner. To recall these memories, proceed to the next section. VR-120D OPERATING MANUAL 21 Memory Mode MEMORY RECALL Recall of memorized channels is very simple: 1. The memory number will appear in the top left-hand corner of the display, indicating that you are now operating in the Memory Recall mode. Rotate the DIAL knob, while pressing the [FUNC] key, to recall the first memory channel of each memory bank. To return to the VFO mode from the Memory mode, just press the [V/M] key. LABELING MEMORIES You may wish to append an alpha-numeric "Tag" (label) to a memory or memories, to aid in recollection of the channel frequency's significance (such as a Broadcast Station name, etc. ). Alpha-numeric labels may be appended at the time of storage of the frequency data, or at a later time. An example of alpha-numeric label programming was presented earlier in detailed form. Press the [SCAN] key while pressing the [FUNC] key to enable programming of the name tag. Rotate the DIAL to select the first digit of the desired label. space Þ A ·E·E·E 0 ·E·E·E *Þ +Þ ·| Þ / Þ <Þ >Þ _Þ space Þ A ·E·E·E ZÞ 9Þ Z·E·E·E 4.
