Memory Bank Operation - Yaesu VX-170 Operating Manual

The large number of memories available in the VX-170 could be difficult to utilize without
some means of organizing them. Fortunately, the VX-170 includes provision for dividing
the memories into as many as ten Memory Groups, so you can categorize the memories in
a manner convenient to you.
Assigning Memories to a Memory Bank
1. Recall the memory channel to be assigned to a Memory Bank.
2. Press and hold in the [ VFO ( PRI )] key for one second, then ro-
tate the DIAL knob to select the Memory Bank number you want
as the Memory Bank for this channel ("
BANK10
" ").
3. Press and hold in the [ F key for one second to copy the memory
channel data into the Memory Bank.
1) You may assign one memory channel into multiple Memory Banks.
2) The PMS memory channels (L1/U1 through L10/U10) may not be as-
signed to a Memory Bank.
Memory Bank Recall
1. Press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key, if needed, to enter the Memory Recall mode.
2. Press and hold in the [ VFO ( PRI )] key, then rotate the DIAL
knob to select the desired Memory Bank ("

3. Press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key momentarily; now, as you rotate the
DIAL knob to select memories, you will observe that you can
only select memory channels in the current memory bank. The

DIAL knob to select the new Memory Bank, then press the [ MR ( SKIP )] key momentarily.

now in the "standard" Memory Recall mode, without utilization
of the Memory Banks. The memories stored in the various Banks
will remain in those banks, however; you do not need to store
them again.
