To add to this email,  I don't know the WARC bands off hand either I believe
17 meters is 18.068 to 18.168   but don't hold me to that, that's the only
WARC band I use frequently. To program them in memory on the 940, you hold
the bottom right button in the group of 6 above the numbers/band buttons,
and hit the number you want, like for example, if you want it in memory 1
you hold that bottom right button down up over the number pad and hit 1,
which doubles as the 160 meter band button, memory 2, you hit #2  and so on
making sure to hold that bottom right button in while doing it or it won't
program that memory.   I hope that makes sense,  that is a great radio I've
had mine almost a year now and use it all the time almost daily.
