Convenience Features; Band Stack Operation; Custom Switch) - Yaesu FT-991 Operating Manual

The FT-991 utilizes a triple band-stack VFO selection technique that permits storing of up to three favorite frequencies
and modes onto each band VFO register. For example, one frequency each on 14 MHz CW, RTTY, and USB may be
stored and then recalled by successive, momentary touches of [ 14 ] on the screen displayed by the BAND button. Each
Amateur band key may similarly have up to three frequency/mode settings applied. Note that only the VFO-A system
has the band stacks.
A typical setup, for the 14 MHz band, might be arranged like this:
1. Program 14.025 MHz, CW Mode, then press the
BAND button, and then touch [ 14 ] on the LCD.
2. Program 14.080 MHz, RTTY Mode, then press the
BAND button, and then touch [ 14 ] on the LCD.
3. Program 14.195 MHz, SSB Mode, then press the
BAND button, and then touch [ 14 ] on the LCD.
With this configuration, successive momentary touches
of [ 14 ] on the screen displayed when the BAND button
is pressed will allow you to step sequentially through
these three VFOs.
The front panel C.S button may be programmed to directly access an often-used Menu Mode selection.
