[bars] Yaesu FT-70DR users nomenclature error resolved

[hgcsenior at gmail.com]

All,

 

This is a fine fully featured HT radio.  This weekend I spent many hours
trying to take advantage of the 24 memory banks which will resister 100
channels each! Permitting grouping headings like family, friends, ARES,
utilities, Littleton, Boston, hospitals, Doctors, etc.  which can be easily
called and scanned etc.  

 

I found myself trapped in endless loop of failed attempts to understand
hopelessly illogical responses from the FT-70DR.  

 

I'm using the Yaesu FT-70DR User and Advanced manuals for instructions.  

 

Ten minutes ago I found the solution, and it works perfectly, this I must
share immediately. 

 

It's nomenclature, the word BAND and word BANK refer to the same button
choice in the manuals, however the radio button is printed BAND.

 

It's the BAND labeled button you must press the manual tells you to "select"
BANK.  The word select indicates you might look a the screen for or rotate
the know until you find BANK.  

 

Which is correct the HT or Manuals?  For the user, just equate BAND = BANK
while configuring.

 

This will help you with any FT-70DM configuring issues.

 

73,
