Direct Memory Recall feature provides
One-Touch Stored Frequencies Access,
just like on a Car Stereo!

Full keyboard operation is powerful, but in an
emergency it can seem confusing. The VX-6R/E,
though, adopts a one-touch DMR (Direct Memory
Recall) system operating just like your car stereo
does. Just tune to a frequency, press a numerical
key for about two seconds
to store the frequency,
and then just touch that
key to recall the stored
frequency instantly!
