Memory Operation; Qmb (Quick Memory Bank) Channels - Yaesu FT-857D Operating Manual

QMB ( Q
The "Quick Memory" Bank provides one-touch access to frequencies you want to store and
recall in a hurry. You may store a "QMB" channel into a "regular" memory later, if you like;
use of the "regular" memories will be described later.
QMB Channel Storage
1. Tune in the desired frequency and set the operating mode and bandwidth. If this is an FM
channel, set up any required CTCSS/DCS and repeater shift configurations.
2. Press and hold in the [ V/M ] key (along the right side of the DIAL knob, the upper key)
until two "beeps" are heard. The second beep (heard one second after the initial beep)
provides audible confirmation that the data has been stored into the QMB memory.
Pressing the [A](STO) key momentarily while in Multi Function Row "c" [STO,
RCL, PROC] will also store a frequency into the QMB register.
QMB Channel Recall
1. Press the [ FUNC ] key momentarily, then rotate the SELECT knob, as needed, until
Multi Function Row "c" [ STO, RCL, PROC ] appears on the display.
2. Press the [ B ]( RCL ) key momentarily to recall the QMB memory. "QMB" will appear in
the upper left corner of the display.
3. Press the [ B ]( RCL ) key once more to return to the previous frequency (either a VFO
frequency or a Memory channel).
If you move the DIAL knob or SELECT knob while in the QMB mode, you can
change frequencies as if you were in a "VFO" mode. You also can change the
operating mode by pressing the [ MODE ( t )] or [ MODE ( u )] key. When either change is
performed, "MTQMB" will appear in the display, where "MT" represents "Memory Tun-
ing." Press the [ B ]( RCL ) key once more to return to the originally-stored QMB frequency.
