register will be the same as that in use on the Main
(VFO-A) register.
The offset of the Sub (VFO-B) from the Main VFO
(VFO-A) is programmed via the Menu, and is set
to +5 kHz at the factory. Other offsets may be se-
lected, however, using the following procedure:
1. Press the

sired offset.
The available selections are –20kHz ~ +20kHz
(factory default: +5 kHz).
4. When you have completed all adjustments, press
and hold in the
[
