Note:
uYou cannot recall an empty memory channel.  An error beep
sounds.
uYou cannot recall the Program Scan memory channels
(L0/U0 ~ L2/U2), Priority Channel (Pr) and Weather Alert
(AL) (TH-K2AT K/ K2 only) using the numeric keypad.
uWhen you recall an odd-split memory channel, Ò+Ó and ÒÐÓ
appear on the display.  Press [F], [MENU] (Reverse function)
{page 38} to display the transmission frequency.
uAfter recalling a memory channel, you may modify data such
as Tone or CTCSS.  However, these settings...

Note:
uCall Channel data cannot be cleared.uYou can also clear the Priority Channel, L0/U0 ~ L2/U2 and
Weather Alert  data.
uWhile the trasceiver is in Channel Display Mode or Lock function
is activated, you cannot clear the channel data.
uTo clear all memory channels contents at once, perform FullReset {page 111}.
NAMING A MEMORY CHANNEL
You can name memory channels using up to 6

MEMORY CHANNEL TRANSFER
Memory \ VFO Transfer
After retrieving frequencies and associated data from
Memory Recall Mode, you can copy the data to the
VFO.  This function is useful, for example, when the
frequency you want to monitor is near the frequency
stored in a memory channel.
1Press [MR], then turn the Tuning control to recall a
desired memory channel.
2Press [F], [VFO] to copy the memory channel data
to the VFO.
Note:
uTo copy an odd-split channel data {page 45}, turn the Reverse
function ON...

51
3Select the memory channel where you would like the
data copied, using the Tuning control.
4Press [MR].
The tables below illustrate how data is transferred
between memory channels.

CALL CHANNEL
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 64} will be useful.
The default Call Channel frequencies are 144.000 MHz
for the 2 m band (all TH-K2 models), and 430.000 MHz
(all TH-K4 models) for the 70 cm band.
Note:  Unlike memory channels 0 to 99, the Call Channel cannot becleared.

Reprogramming the Call Channel
1Select 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.
2Press [F], [CALL].
¥ The selected frequency and related data are stored in
the Call Channel.
To also store a separate transmit frequency, continue
with the following steps.
3Select the desired transmission frequency.
4Press [F].
5Press [PTT]+[CALL].
¥ The separate transmission...

WEATHER ALERT (TH-K2AT K/ K2 ONLY)
One of the NOAA Weather Radio channels can be
programmed to the AL memory channel of the TH-K2AT.
The transceiver can be configured to check the NOAA
Weather Alert tone (1050 Hz) and will automatically alert
you by recalling and monitoring the Weather Radio
frequency when the Weather Alert tone is broadcasted.
Programming the Weather Radio Frequency
The transceiver is preprogrammed to 162.550 MHz
(WX1).  You can store a different frequency to the AL
channel to use...

56
Note:
uWhen you perform Full Reset {page 111}, the Weather Radio
frequency recovers the factory default frequency (162.550 MHz).
uWhen you clear the Weather Radio channel {page 47}, the
factory default frequency (162.550 MHz) will not be recovered.
uYou can also transfer the AL memory channel data to the VFO oranother memory channel.
Enabling a Weather Alert
You can monitor the Weather Radio frequency
continuously or in the background while receiving on
another frequency.
To monitor the Weather Radio...
