ONVENIENT EATURES
When operating on an Amateur Band on the Main (VFO-A) register, it is possible to use the [ BAND/MHz ] switch to
engage the use of the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob for Amateur band selection. The "My Bands" feature allows you to select
several Amateur bands, and make only those bands available for selection via the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] tuning knob.
This feature can be very useful in a contest, where the 10/18/24 MHz band are not used, or if you do not have antennas for
some bands.
"My Bands" Setup
1. Press the [ MNU ] key to engage the Menu mode; the
Menu list will appear on the TFT.
2. Rotate the [ Main Tuning Dial ] Tuning Dial to se-
lect Menu item "TUNING 144 MY BAND".
3. Rotate the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob to choose a band
that you wish to skip (omit) from the band-selection
loop (when using the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob for band
selection). The available choices are 1.8/3.5/7/10/14/
18/21/24/28/50/GEN/TRV, and the factory-default
selection is TRV (only).
4. Press the [ ENT ] key to set the omission command to
ON.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to select/deselect as many bands
as you like.
