User manual KENWOOD TM-733A

[. . . ] in Menu mode, you will see a text message on the display that lets you know what you are configuring. Though user friendly, this transceiver is technically sophisticated and some features may be new to you. Consider this manual to be a personal tutorial from the designers. Allow the manual to guide you through the learning process now, then act as a reference in the coming years. [. . . ] When you recall an odd-split memory channel, "+" and "­" appear on the display. Press [REV] to display the transmission frequency. After recalling a Memory Channel, you may modify data such as Narrow Band, Tone, or CTCSS. However, these settings are cleared once you select another channel or the VFO Mode. To permanently store the data, overwrite the channel contents. CLEARING A MEMORY CHANNEL To erase an individual Memory Channel: 1 Recall the Memory Channel you want to erase. ] (Power) (1s) to switch the transceiver ] (Power). 3 Press [MR]+[ · An erase confirmation message appears. 4 Press [MR] to erase the channel data. · The contents of the Memory Channel are erased. · To quit clearing the Memory Channel, press any key other than [MR]. Note: You can also clear the Priority Channel, the AL Channel, and L0/U0 ~ L2/U2 data. (The Call Channel cannot be cleared. ) To clear all Memory Channel contents at once, perform Full Reset {page 67}. You cannot clear channels while in Channel Display Mode. 7 31 NAMING A MEMORY CHANNEL You can name Memory Channels using up to 6 alphanumeric characters. When you recall a named Memory Channel, its name appears on the display in place of the stored frequency. Names can be call signs, repeater names, cities, names of people, etc. You can also transfer the Program Scan memory channels (L0/U0 ~ L2/U2), the Priority Channel (Pr), and the Weather Alert Channel (AL) (K market models only) to the VFO. Lockout status and Memory Names are not copied from a Memory Channel to the VFO. 3 Select the Memory Channel where you would like the data copied by using the Tuning control or pressing Mic [UP]/[DWN]. 7 4 Press [MR]. 33 The tables below illustrate how data is transferred between Memory Channels.

CH). The AL Channel is available for K market models only. Note: When transferring an odd-split channel, the Reverse status, Offset direction, and Offset frequency are not transferred {pages 23, 26}. Tone, CTCSS, and DCS are automatically turned OFF when transferring data to the Weather Alert Channel (AL). 34 CALL CHANNEL Call Channel default settings: · On K and M market models, pressing [CALL] changes the transceiver to the Call Channel. · On E market models, pressing [CALL] causes the transceiver to transmit a 1750 Hz tone {page 25}. REPROGRAMMING THE CALL CHANNEL 1 Select your desired frequency and related data (Tone, CTCSS, DCS, or offset direction, etc. ). · When you program the Call Channel as an odd-split channel, select a reception frequency first. 2 Press [F]. · A Memory Channel number appears and blinks. The Call Channel can be recalled instantly no matter what frequency the transceiver is operating on. For instance, you may use the Call Channel as an emergency channel within your group. In this case, Call Scan {page 43} will be useful. The default Call Channel frequency is 144. 000 MHz. Note: Unlike Memory Channels 0 to 199, the Call Channel cannot be cleared. 3 Turn the Tuning control or press Mic [UP]/[DWN] to select the Call Channel ("C"). 4 Press [MR]. · The selected frequency and related data are stored in the Call Channel. 7 RECALLING THE CALL CHANNEL 1 Press [CALL] to recall the Call Channel. · The Call Channel frequency and "C" appear.
