A special one-touch “HOME” channel is available for each of operating bands, to allow
quick recall of a favorite operating frequency on each band.
Home Channel storage is simple to accomplish:

Change the setting of Set Mode Item 28:
HM
/
RV
from “
REV
” to “
HOME
,” if it is not
already set to this option (see page 95).
2.
Select the desired frequency, while operating in the VFO mode. Be sure to set up any
desired CTCSS or DCS tones, as well as any desired repeater offset. The power level
may also be set at this time, if you wish to store it.
3.
Press and hold in the [
F/W
] key for one second.
4.
While the memory channel number is blinking, just press the [
