Kevin:

Ok, I'll try my best to explain, based on my experience.

The TMV71A is not like the older TMV7A's we had.  The older TMV7A's had 
separate bands for VFO's A.  and B.  But, the TMV71A doesn't, in that all 
your memories are programmed into the rig itself, and you just select which 
memories you want for each VFO.

I had this same frustration when I first got my TMV71A, and it took me a 
while to figure it out.

So, my suggestion would be, program all of your memories into the rig, and 
then, just set the VFO's for the memories you will use the most on each.

If I am wrong on this advice, hopefully, someone else can set us both 
straight.

Hi All,

OK, I have most things set up on the V71A but am having the devil's own time
programming memories.  I get them all programmed on one band, then I go to
the other band and start programming and the ones on the first band
disappear or at least some of them do.  On my radio, the A band seems to be
144 and the B band is 440.  Any idea what I am doing wrong here?

For example, I had programmed 28 memories on 2 meters on A then moved to B
and programmed 14.  When I went back to the 2 meter side channels 0 through
7 and 9 through 14 had disappeared.  I reprogrammed them but couldn't get
channel 4 to take an entry.  When I went back to the 440 side all memories
but 4 were gone.  I'm frustrated.  <GRIN>

Thanks much and very 73.
