Q:  How do I change the "Priority Channel" setting?
A:  To change the priority channel, go to the memory mode, and change to the channel you with to "prioritize", then press and hold
the [F/W] button, and then press [Band(Set/AR)]. Your new priority channel should be set.


  Doesn't say how to get RID of it, though. Hmmm.... actually going to the web site, at
http://www.yaesu.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=DisplayProducts&ProdCatID=111&encProdID=nFLhjiVz8z8%3D&DivisionID=65&isArchived=0



 How do I change the Priority Channel, or return it to Channel 1?
 It is possible to set the Priority Channel to any "regular" Memory Channel in the transceiver. To do this:

(1) Press and hold in the (FW) button until the memory channel blinks, then use the DIAL knob to select the channel you wish to
assign as the Priority Channel.

(2) Now press the [BAND] key. The new Priority is now assigned.

(3) To return the Priority Channel to Channel 1 (default), repeat the above procedure, selecting Channel 1 in step (1) above.


    Hope this helps some...
