User manual ICOM IC-260E

[. . . ] With proper care, this product should provide you with years of trouble-free operation. We want to take a couple of moments of your time to thank you for making your IC-260E your radio of choice, and hope you agree with Icom's philosophy of "technology first. " Many hours of research and development went into the design of your IC-260E. IMPORTANT READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL-- This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for the IC-260E.

Push Push and hold Dual operation 28 6 MEMORY/CALL CHANNELS Copying memory contents This function transfers a memory channel's contents to a VFO (or another memory channel). This is useful when searching for signals around a memory channel frequency and for recalling the offset frequency, subaudible tone frequency etc. Pushing and holding [V/M] (SKIP·S. MW) for 2 sec. at the step w, can also copies the memory contents to VFO. In this case, steps e and r are not necessary. D MemoryVFO q Select the memory channel to be copied. Push [V/M] (SKIP·S. MW) momentarily to select memory mode, then rotate [DIAL] to select the desired memory channel. · Select the bank channel with [BAND] (TS·LOCK) and [DIAL], if desired. D Memorymemory q Select the memory channel to be transferred. Push [V/M] (SKIP·S. MW) to select memory mode, then rotate [DIAL] to select the desired memory channel. wPush and hold [V/M] (SKIP·S.
