8-8 Deleting memory channels and banks
It is possible to delete memory channels on an individual basis or delete a
whole memory bank in one go.  In fact, the delete key has many operations
depending upon what operating mode (2VFO, SCAN or SEARCH) the receiver
was in prior to the selection of delete using the key sequence [FUNC] [9].
The deletion of memory data presumes that you have previously programmed
memory channels which you now wish to delete!  Once you have deleted...

Another special form of scanning is “PRIORITY” where a special channel
(default to “A00”) is scanned for activity every five seconds.
“SELECT SCAN” enables you to make a single short list of interesting
memory channels from all memory banks to be scanned as a separate
function.  This reduces the need to PASS, LINK and UNLINK banks and
channels.
“AUTO-STORE” reserves memory bank “J” so that active frequencies found
while conducting a SEARCH (see sections 13 & 15 of this manual)...
