Thanks. I missed that on the errata sheet. Although it's  not to clear how to set them up. You must enter a frequency in each 0-9 before it becomes active.

All that's necessary is to set "MEM 0-9" to "Band Sel" in 
the configuration menu.  After that, M->V followed by 1 
through 0 will recall the last used frequency/mode on each 
band 160 -> 6 (1 = 1.8, 2 = 3.5, 3 = 7, 4 = 10, 5 = 14, 
6 = 18.1, 7 = 21, 8 = 24.9, 9 = 28 and 0 - 50 MHz). 

73,
