The memory channel name? is limited to 6 or 7 character depending on the radio.
So, I have dealt with this problem by using the airport code for a city, followed on the same line by a V for 2m or U for 70cm and then a number.
For example:
Charlotte North Carolina airport code is CLT.
MY HT channel's labels:
145.23 ? CLT V1
145.29?? CLT V2
146.94?? CLT V3
147.27?? CLT V4
442.65 ? CLT U1
444.175 CLT U2
444.60?? CLT U3
Nearby Concord NC's airport code is JQF.
146.655? JQF V1
442.525? JQF U1
442.250? JQF U2
444.775? JQF U3
In smaller cities, I just put in the airport code plus V or U.
Lexington NC airport code is EXX.
!46.91? EXX VHF
444.50 EXX UHF
This? it allows you to have a city indicator and individual channel label all in one memory name.
While this is not optimal, does work.
