(4) VFO enhanced facilities

As well as providing a tuning data storage, the two VFOs offer additional features including quick

memory, VFO scan, VFO search and VFO environment.

4-1 Quick memories

While monitoring in 2VFO mode, 10 ‘quick memories’ are provided for easy saving of current VFO data

and simple recall at a later time. When all 10 quick memories have been used and further data is stored,

the oldest quick memory will be overwritten. Quick memory channels are not numbered, they simply

form a chronological list which you may recall and scroll through.

Quick memories may also be written to automatically when using VFO SEARCH MODE. To activate

AUTO QUICK MEMORY, the VFO environment parameters need to be first set up

The AR8200 provides 1,000 memory channels in addition to the 10 ‘quick memory’ channels and a

priority channel. Each ‘quick memory’ channel may hold all the data for the current VFO: frequency,

mode, step, step-adjust, frequency offset, attenuator setting, noise limiter status & AFC status.

4-1-1 Saving quick memory data

If you are not already in 2VFO mode so that the “2VFO” legend is displayed toward

the upper left of the LCD. While in 2VFO mode, the key to save the current active

VFO (upper of the two frequency displays with larger characters) into quick memory.

If the beep facility is active, a BEEP will be heard, if the beep facility is not active there will be no

indication that quick memory storage has taken place (until you recall the data!).

Change the displayed frequency and save two or three further quick memory channels.

&Note: Frequencies must be more than ± 10 kHz from of a frequency already stored in

quick memory or the new frequency will be ignored, this prevents all 10 quick memory

channels needlessly containing the same frequency.

Saving quick memories while in VFO search

The quick memory facility is available in VFO SEARCH mode in addition to 2VFO mode. The procedure

is just the same, the key while the receiver is monitoring a transmission to save the

receive frequency and accompanying data to quick memory. This quick memory data may later be

recalled for monitoring or as the starting point to tune from. Refer to

section 4-3

of this manual for

further information relating to VFO search.

During VFO search, quick memories may also be written to automatically when the receiver has stopped

on an active channel for more than a specified period of time between 10s and 990s, this facility is

default off. Refer to

section 4-4-8

of this manual for further information relating to VFO search quick

memory.
