Yaesu FTM-500D: Tagging Memories (video #5 in this series)

#hamradio #yaesu #ftm-500 #c4fm #aprs
This video is being released first for the S7 (Executive) and S9 (VIP) Patreon team members. Certain videos are eventually released for public viewing.
Jonathan, W5GI, is an S9+ (aka VIP+) Patreon team member. He gifted me a Yaesu FTM-500D transceiver, asking me to shoot some videos about it.
I cannot buy a new radio every time one is released. I have to pay household bills, medical bills, and taxes. Without the generosity of people like Jonathan (FTM-500D), Wendell, K5WAN (FTM-400XDR), and Joel, KC4WZB, (FTdx10, IC-7300, FT-991A, FTdx101MP) I would not be able to shoot videos about such a wide variety of transceivers, while still maintaining my objective to show the good, the bad, and the ugly. The one time I was loaned a radio by a retailer, to shoot videos about the FT-710, I was refused any future loaners, even though they told me ahead of time that I could be objective. That’s what I get for being honest with my viewers.
In this video, I show how to tag memories with a descriptive moniker. You could tag a repeater memory with the name of the club that sponsors the repeater. Or you might tag the memories with the name of the town the repeater serves. Additionally, I tag my simplex frequency memories with such monikers as Calling Frequency and Local.
At the end of this video, you will be able to see a listing of some of the supporters of this channel who made this video possible. These are people who have supported the channel via Patreon membership, as what I call long-haulers. Long-haulers have supported the channel on a long-term basis. There are 4 levels of Patreon membership, including S5 (Associate), S7 (Executive), S9 (VIP), and S9+ (VIP+). S9+ (VIP+) denotes an S9 (VIP) member who voluntarily chooses to give over and above the amount for S9 (VIP) membership. They help me continue to produce videos even though most people do not contribute toward the cost of my mission. Without their support, I cannot bring my viewers uncensored content.
I hope you enjoy this video and find it helpful.

Most videos are visible to the Patreon team members long before they are released for public viewing. Some videos are never released for public viewing. Yearly S7 (Executive) and S9 (VIP) members have access to the menu optimizations PDFs I’ve written for the FT-891, FT-991A, FTdx5000MP, FTdx101D/MP, FTdx10, and FT-710 AESS. Yearly S7 (Executive) members can receive one menu optimizations PDF while yearly S9 (VIP) members can receive multiple menu optimizations documents, plus my FT8 configuration guide for either the FTdx10 or the FT-710 AESS. Future radios might be added. The documents are copyrighted. They shall not be divulged to anyone else without written permission from Doug McAlexander, callsign N4HNH.
