Memory Operation; Convenient Memory Functions; Qmb (Quick Memory Bank) - Yaesu FT DX 3000 Operating Manual

The FT 3000 contains ninety-nine regular memories, labeled "01" through "99", nine special programmed limit
DX
memory pairs, labeled "P-1L/P-1U" through "P-9L/P-9U", and five QMB (Quick Memory Bank) memories, labeled "C-1"
through "C-5". Each stores various settings, in addition to the VFO-A frequency and mode (See below). By default, the
99 regular memories are contained in one group; however, they can be arranged in up to six separate groups, if desired.

The FT 3000 memory channels store the following
DX
data (not just the operating frequency):
 VFO-A Frequency
 VFO-A Mode
 Clarifier status and its Offset Frequency
 ANT status
 IPO status
 Roofing filter status and its Bandwidth
 Attenuator status
 Noise Blanker status
 IF SHIFT and WIDTH status
 CONTOUR status and its Peak Frequency
 DSP Noise Reduction (DNR) status and its
Reduction algorithm selection.
 DSP Notch filter (NOTCH) status
 NAR bandwidth status
 DSP Auto Notch filter (DNF) status
 Repeater Shift Direction and CTCSS Tone

The Quick Memory Bank consists of five memories (labeled "Q-1" through "Q-5.") independent from the regular and
PMS memories. These can quickly store operating parameters for later recall.
QMB Channel Storage
1. Tune to the desired frequency on the VFO-A.
2. Press the blue [ STO ] button. The "beep" will con-
firm that the VFO-A contents have been written to
the currently available QMB memory.
If you repeatedly press the [ STO ] button, the QMB
memories will be written in the following order:
Q-2  Q-3  Q-4  Q-5  Q-1.
Once all five QMB memories have data on them, previ-
ous data (starting with channel Q-1) will be over-written
on a first-in, first-out basis.
QMB Channel Recall
1. Press the blue [ RCL ] button. The current QMB
channel data will be shown on the frequency display
field and the QMB memory channel number will be
shown in the Multi-Display Window.
2. Repeatedly pressing the [ RCL ] button will toggle
you through the QMB channels:
Q-2  Q-3  Q-4  Q-5  Q-1.
3. Press the [ V/M ] button to return to the VFO or Mem-
ory mode.

Rotating the Main Tuning Dial knob, or changing the
operating mode, will place the transceiver in the "Mem-
ory Tune" mode, which is a temporary "pseudo-VFO"
method of tuning off of a stored memory channel. If you
do not over-write the contents of the current memory
channel, the original contents will not be disturbed by
the initiation of Memory Tune operation.
