Don't you have to mask the memories rather than erase? That's how it is on
my vx5 and vx6.


I haven't tried that on my VX-7R, but I think that all the radio does is
skip over them when one, for example, scans through the memories.

By comparison, my FT-2800M base unit allows me to clear a specific
memory and then reprogram it later, if I wish. I've done that several
times when I programmed it for some of the repeaters in my local area.

I've got one, too, and it's terrific. The only thing I haven't figured
out is how to delete the contents of individual memories. I can do it
on my Yaesu base station, and it would be nice if I could do it for my
HT. Do you have any suggestions, others than completely resetting the
radio?


I haven't tried that yet. I usually have something to write over it,
but I did run into some thing strange. Some how I managed to get the
"beep" turned on so every time I'd key it it'd send out a beep. No
matter what I tried I couldn't ge tit to quite. I need to download
the comander software.
