I need a " reset " area to reset all 5 of the memory channels, also...on some channels there is an AM indicator on the display, while others show an " FM " icon. I want all of them to be on "AM ", so how do I do that ?

This rig also has been modified to have 80 channels in it instead of just 40. How do I " unmodify " it to be the stock 40 channels in AM only ?

The fm modes is because someone did the European mod to it. There is a 120 channel mod that is just standard export operation.One you reverse the mod it should go back to just the 40 US channels. These mods ( like 3 of them for Europe, UK, and 120 channel export operation) are done by jumping I believe a set of 4 pads on the back of the radio. If you open it up and look on the back where a small jumper was soldered in you should be able to remove the jumper and return the radio back to its stock operation.
Trying to remember where the mod is located.
