MEMORY FUNCTIONS
The SW8 contains 70 memory locations that can be
used to store and recall commonly monitored frequen-
cies. These 70 locations are divided into blocks of 10,
ie. 00-09, 10-19, 20-29, etc. This allows convenient
grouping of frequencies. As an example, 00-09 could
be AM broadcast stations, 10-19 could be FM broad-
cast stations, 20-29 could be various time stations such
as CHU and WWV, etc. With memory locations
programmed, you can use the scan function to auto-
matically monitor desired memory frequencies. The
following operating parameters may be stored in any
memory location:
1) Frequency 2) Mode 3) Bandwidth 4) AGC setting
5) Attenuator 6) Synchronous detector
