respective indicator imbedded within the switch, al-
lowing adjustment of the operating mode on the Main
(VFO-A) or Sub (VFO-B) band. Pressing the A
switch causes the indicator to glow Red, signifying
Main (VFO-A) band is being adjusted. Similarly,
pressing the B switch will cause its indicator to glow
Orange, signifying Sub (VFO-B) Band adjustment.
Advice
When changing bands, be sure to press the A or
B switch first, then press the appropriate Band se-
lector switch, so as to change operating frequencies
on the proper (Main or Sub) band.

QMB (Quick Memory Bank) Switch
STO (Store) Button
Pressing this button copies operating information (fre-
quency, mode, bandwidth, and also repeater direction/
shift frequency and CTCSS functions on the FM mode)
into consecutive QMB Memories.
RCL (Recall) Button
Pressing this button recalls one of up to five Quick
Memory Bank memories for operation.
RX Indicator/Switch
This switch, when pressed, engages the Main (VFO-
A) band receiver; the indicator will glow Green when
the Main receiver is active.
When the Main (VFO-A) receiver is active, pressing
this button momentarily will mute the receiver, and
the indicator will blink. Pressing the button once more
will restore receiver operation, and the indicator will
glow Green steadily.
TX Indicator/Switch
When this button is pushed, the indicator will glow
Red, and the transmitter will be engaged on the same
frequency and mode as was set up for the Main (VFO-
A) band (subject to any Clarifier offset, of course).
Advice
If this indicator is not illuminated, it means that the
Sub (VFO-B) TX indicator has been selected (it will
be glowing Red). In this case, transmission will be
effected on the frequency and mode programmed for
the Sub (VFO-B) band.
