yup, it beeps at memory 0 and also, it has national weather service, not much you can do about that being there so when you hear that you're at the highest.

  John:
  Does the 271 have a beep between channel one and the top channel?
  Or some sort of reference point to count knob clicks to find the appropriate
  memory channel?
  Or is it better to use the mike to select specific memory channels?
