 [GENE •] selects the general coverage band.

 Using the band stacking registers

The  triple  band  stacking  register  provides  3  memo-
ries for each band key to store frequencies and oper-
ating modes.
This function is convenient when you operate 3 operat-
ing modes on one frequency band.
For example, one register can be used for a CW fre-
quency, another for an SSB frequency and the other 

one for an RTTY frequency.

If a band key or [GENE •]* is pushed once, the last 

used  frequency  and  operating  mode  are  called  up. 
When  the  key  is  pushed  again,  another  stored  fre-
quency and operating mode are called up.

*  If you are using a frequency band other than HF/50 MHz, 

you can call up the HF/50 MHz frequency band by pushing 

the band keys ([1.8 1] to [50 0] or [GENE •]).

See the table below for a list of the available frequency 
bands and their default frequency and mode settings.

 Selecting a frequency band

The frequency band you want to use can be selected 
in the MAIN and SUB Bands.
Before changing the frequency band on the SUB Band, 
push [SUB] to turn ON the SUB Band setting mode.
In addition to the HF/50 MHz, 144 MHz and 430 MHz 
frequency  bands,  the  IC-9100  can  operate  on  the 
1200 MHz frequency band*

1

.

q

  Hold down [BAND](MAIN/SUB) for 1 second one or 

more times until the desired frequency of the bands 
that are stored in the MAIN or SUB Band, which-
ever you selected.

w

  To call up the previously selected frequency and op-

erating mode, push a band key or [GENE •] if the 

HF/50 MHz frequency band was selected in step 

q

or push [GENE •] if the 

144 MHz, 430 MHz or 1200 

MHz frequency band*

NOTE: 

The same frequency band cannot be simul-

taneously selected in both MAIN and SUB Bands.
The frequency band, selected in either the MAIN or 
SUB Band, cannot be selected on the other Band.
