Kenwood TS-440S - Manual (Page 18)

depressing this switch allows you to receive on the
transmit frequency as long as the switch is held
depressed. The TUNING dial is active when this
switch is depressed, so it is easy to change your
transmitter frequency at the same time, if neces­
sary. Releasing the switch will return you to the
original receive frequency.
3-6. MEMORY
The TS-440S incorporates a convenient 100 channel
memory that can be used to store and recall common­
ly used frequencies. These channels can be subdivid­
ed into 10 user-defined groups to tailor the TS-440S
for optimum operation in a particular application. You
can, for instance, assign channels 1 0 through 19 to
the 160 meter band, channels 20 through 29 to the
80 meter band, channels 30 through 39 to the 40
meter band (LSB), channels 40 through 49 to the 20
meter band (USB), channels 50 through 59 to the 1 5
meter band, channels 60 to 69 to the 10 meter band
(FM), channels 70 through 79 to the 12 meter band,
and channels 80 through 89 to various shortwave
bands. Channels 90 through 99 could then be assigned
as split frequency channels. After completing channel
assignments, you can then use the convenient memory
scan function to automatically recall the stored fre­
quencies on a group basis.
3-6-1. Memory Entry
1. With the TS-440S in the VFO mode, select the
desired operating frequency and mode as described
in previous sections.

2. Press the M.IN switch. The radio will enter the
Memory Scroll (M.SCR) mode. The current memory
channel number (M.CH), frequency and mode will
be displayed, but the actual operating frequency
and mode will remain unchanged allowing uninter­
rupted reception.

b. Enter a two digit channel number using the nu­
meric keypad, being sure to include the leading
zero for channels 00 through 09. Pressing the
CLEAR key or the standby switch before press­
ing the second digit will return you to the origi­
nal channel.

UP/DOWN switches to scroll thru the different
memory positions.
5. When the desired memory channel is displayed,
press the M.IN key again. The current frequency
and mode will be stored, the scroll mode will be
cancelled, and the TS-440S will return to the oper­
ating mode and frequency that was displayed be­
fore the M.IN key was pressed initially. Note that
if RIT was selected prior to step 2, the actual fre­
quency stored will be the indicated frequency plus
or minus the RIT variable.

3. Select the desired memory channel using one of the
three methods described below,
a. Turn the TUNING dial until the desired channel
number is displayed (One revolution of the dial
cover about 1 0 channels).
Notes:---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The RIT/XIT status will be copied from the memory
to the VFO when the M^V key is depressed.
2. When data is transferred from the split frequency
memory, the active VFO is loaded with the receive
data and the inactive VFO will be loaded with the
transmit data. The TS-440S will then automatical­
ly enter the SPLIT mode.
3. This operation will not function if no data is con-
