[ICOM] Icom 706MkII-G "memories"

[Gary Fiber]

Donald,

You should be able to mix and match the memory channels as you like, HF, 
6 meters, VHF and UHF all should store in the mrmory channels.
For VHF and UHF have the repeater functioning in VFO mode, then store it 
to a memory channel of your choice. The offset and CTCSS tone if 
required will stay programmed in the memory channel.
