Frequency Mode vs. Channel Mode

These two modes have different functions and often confused.
Frequency Mode (VFO) - Used for a temporary frequency assignment, such as a test frequency
or quick field programming if permitted.
Channel Mode (MR) - Used for selecting preprogrammed channels.
All programming MUST be initially done in the Frequency Mode only. From there you have the
option of assigning the entered data to a specific channel for later access in the Channel Mode
if desired.
