When operating on an amateur band, it is possible to use the [ CLAR ( VFO-B )] knob to change the selected operating band.
The "My Bands" feature allows you to designate several amateur bands, and make
with the [ CLAR ( VFO-B )] knob.
This feature can be
useful in a contest, where the 10/18/24 MHz bands are not used, or if you do not have antennas for
some bands.
"My Bands" Setup
1. Press the [ MENU ] button to engage the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the ( VFO-A )[ SELECT ] knob to select Menu
item "150 TUN MY BAND".
3. Rotate the ( VFO-B )[ SELECT ] 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 1.8M/3.5M/7M/
10M/14M/18M/21M/24M/28M/50M/GEN(General
Band)/T14M(Transverter "1")/T28M(Transverter
"2")/T50M(Transverter "3").
4. Press the [ ENT ] button (one of the [ BAND ] buttons)
to set the selected band to "skipped". The "ON" nota-
tion at the right of the band notation will change to
"OFF".
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to select ("ON") or deselect
("OFF") as many bands as you like.
6. Press and hold in the [ MENU ] button for two seconds
to lock in the new configuration and exit to normal
