fected on the frequency and mode programmed for the
Sub (VFO-B) band.
Main Tuning Dial Knob
This large knob adjusts the operating frequency of the
Main band (VFO-A) or a recalled memory. Clockwise
rotation of this knob increases the frequency. Default

[ A B ] Switch
Press this button momentarily to transfer data from the
Main band (VFO-A) frequency (or a recalled memory
channel) to the Sub band (VFO-B), overwriting any
previous contents in the Sub band (VFO-B). Use this
key to set both Main band (VFO-A) and Sub band
(VFO-B) receivers to the same frequency and mode.
[ A B ] Switch
Pressing this button momentarily exchanges the con-
tents of the Main band (VFO-A) (or a recalled memory
channel) and the Sub band (VFO-B).

Main VFO will be overwritten.
[ A M ] Switch
Pressing and holding in this key for 1/2 second (until
the double beep) copies the current operating data from
the Main band (VFO-A) into the currently selected
memory channel, overwriting any previous data stored
there. See page 100 for details.
Also, pressing and holding in this button after recall-
ing a memory, without first retuning, causes the memory
channel to be "masked," and repeating the process re-
stores the masked memory.
