CMS (Channel Management System) Menu

The Channel Management System (CMS) menu provides tools for creating, deleting, naming, and organizing channels and channel groups.

Channel 999

This can be a special channel reserved for APRS use.
This is the channel to configure with your APRS operating frequency.
See: Main Menu → APRS → Enabled

Write To

Saves the currently active VFO or Tuner configuration as a channel.

• The source may be:
  • A frequency-mode VFO configuration
  • An Si4732 Tuner Frequency. See Operating Modes → Tuner
  • An existing currently selected channel (effectively copying it)
• Select a channel number from 1 to 999 and press GREEN to confirm
• The menu’s Extra Info field indicates whether the selected channel slot is in use or free
• If the source was a tuner frequency that supports RDS, the station name will be set as the new channel's name.

Delete

Erases a stored channel and returns it to a free state.

• Operates in the same manner as Write To
• Select the channel number to erase and press GREEN to confirm
• The Extra Info field indicates whether the selected channel is currently in use

Channel Name

Duplicate menu entry.

See:
Main Menu → Channel → Channel Name

Add Group / Rem Group

Channel and Group modes only

Adds or removes group membership for the currently selected channel.

• Use the UP/DOWN keys to select a group letter (A–Z)
• Press GREEN to confirm the action

A channel may belong to multiple groups (up to 4) simultaneously.

Adding groups to Tuner based channels is pointless.

The extra info field will display the selected channel's current group membership.
