Steve,
I know I said I was going to call it a day but something strange is going
on.  When I set my memory channels up on VFO B I went back to VFO A and what
ever I put in VFO B the exact same frequencies are now on VFO A.  Do you
know what is going on here?

Gary

Gary,

To change the offset direction, press Function followed by Reverse.  The 
first time you do this, you'll hear a low beep.  Repeat the key sequence 
again, and you'll hear a high beep.  The offset will now be set to +.  Note 
that the Automatic Shift works only on 2 meters.  On 440, you have to change

the direction manually.

Steve
