QMB (Quick Memory Bank) Switches

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.

NAR (Narrow) Switch

In the SSB/CW modes on the Main band (VFO-A), this button is used to set the bandwidth of the DSP (digital) IF filters to a user-programmed bandwidth (default values are SSB: 1.8 kHz and CW/RTTY/PSK: 300 Hz).

ADVICE:

When [NAR] has been engaged, the [WIDTH] knob will be disabled, although the [SHIFT] knob still works normally.

In the SSB/CW modes on the Sub Band (VFO-B), this button is used to toggle the receiver’s bandwidth between wide (2.4 kHz) and narrow (1.0 kHz).

ADVICE:

When the Sub Band’s (VFO-B) optional YF-122C (500 Hz) or YF-122CN (300 Hz) CW narrow filter is in- stalled, the optional narrow filter will be activated when the [NAR] switch has been engaged on the CW/RTTY/ PSK modes.

In the AM mode, this button is used to toggle the receiver’s bandwidth between wide (9 kHz) and narrow (6 kHz).

In the FM mode on the 28 MHz and 50 MHz bands, this button is used to toggle the FM deviation/band- width between wide (±5.0 kHz Dev./25.0 kHz BW) and narrow (±2.5 kHz Dev./12.5 kHz BW).

Pressing the [A] or [B] button (located above the [MODE] selection buttons) will select either the Main band (VFO-A) or Sub band (VFO-B) for individual bandwidth setting.
