1. Press the [ F/W ] key then press the [ HM/RV ] key to recall the Home Channel on the
band group where you are currently operating.
2. Press the [ F/W ] key then press the [ HM/RV ] key again to return
to the previous-used frequency (either a VFO or a memory chan-
nel).

The factory defaults for the Home channels are listed below. You may re-program the
Home channel in a manner identical to that used for the regular memories:
1. Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any
desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset. The power level
may also be set at this time, if you wish to store it.
2. Press and hold in the [ F/W ] key for 1/2 seconds.
3. While the memory channel number is blinking, just press the [ HM/RV ] key. The
frequency and other data (if any) will now be stored in the special HOME channel
register.
4. You may repeat this process on the other operating bands.
The UHF HOME
channel is the one
used during "Emer-
gency" operation. See page 74
for details regarding this fea-
ture.
