      If you could do a session on the memory functions that would be great. Other than the basic memory channel function, I find all of those other memory functions very confusing. Like the PMS, home channel, and how to access all the preset receiver memories. How to scan for a busy channel, and then how to place it into an open memory slot from the radio. Also the with the scan function, how to mark for skip, and to unskip. Thanks! Darrell KX4EMT

    Thanks Billy, I don't have reason to update my memory card often, but when I do, this is my "go-to" spot that helps me to recall just how to do it.

I'll try to watch your feed next Sunday. Love this radio so far. Keep the videos coming. Darrell KX4EMT, Lenoir City, TN.

    This video is FANTASTIC! I spent 4 hours trying to get CHiRP and the RTSystems software for the FT3D working, no luck. Why? The programming cable that comes with the radio isn't a programming cable! Thank You MorernHam! ADMS does seem to work. Now I just have to transfer the rest of my channel list (that I use for other HTs) into ADMS, save it to the MicroSD, upload it into the FT3D's memory and all should be good. BRILLIANT!😃

      Just out of curiosity, did you update your firmware? I'm wondering if the update has the error with it.

    I always baffled by how terrible Yaesu is at software though. They clearly rely on people spending the extra €40 or so on RT Systems, which when you have already spent a fair chunk on a radio is a bit hard to swallow. Funny how a crappy €25 Baofeng manages to have working software and yet Yaesu can't.
