The difference is that if you have BAND SEL in effect, an M>V recalls 
the last-used frequency on the target band, not a fixed frequency. Thus 
it's just like doing a BAND up/down.

Example: Suppose you're in BAND SEL mode, and you assign switch #4 to 
40 m. Go to 40 m, then move the VFO. Then switch to any other band. Now 
do M>V, #4, and you'll be back at the *new* VFO frequency on 40 m. In 
normal memory mode, this would have taken you to a fixed location on 40 
m.
