"MY BANDS" OPERATION
When operating on an Amateur Band the Main (VFO-A) register, it is possible to use the BAND/MHz switch (# ) to
engage the use of the CLAR/VFO-B knob (# ) for Amateur band selection. The “My Bands” feature allows you to
select several Amateur bands, and make only those bands available for selection via the CLAR/VFO-B tuning knob.
This feature can be very useful in a contest, where the 10/18/24 MHz band are not used, or if you do not have antennas for
some bands.
“My Bands” Setup
1. Press the MNU key to engage the Menu mode; the
Menu list will appear on the TFT.
2. Rotate the MAIN tuning dial (# ) to select Menu
item TUNING 135 MY BAND.
3. Rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob (# ) to choose a
band that you wish to skip (omit) from the band-se-
lection loop (when using the CLAR/VFO-B tuning
knob for band selection). The available choices are
1.8/3.5/7/10/14/18/21/24/28/50/GEN/TRV, and the
factory-default selection is TRV (only).
4. Press the ENT key to set the omission command to
ON.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to select/deselect as many bands
as you like.
Note
The “ON” command sets the selected band to be skipped, while
the “OFF” command sets the selected band to be included in
the band-selection list.
6. Press and hold in the MNU key for two seconds to
lock in the new configuration and exit to normal op-
eration.
