To turn off xband repeat, all you have to do is hit the menu button, thats it. You will see your "MAIN" icon return to the side you left it on so you know your no longer cross banding...
Could you please tell me how easy the four knobs are to turn? The reason I ask is because I am disabled and don't have any finger movement. Therefore, I can't grip a knob to turn it, I have to use the side of my finger and rely on those move easy movement of a knob in order for it to turn for me. Thanks very much
Penn, this is not my video but I just watched it and saw your unanswered question. The lower 2 knobs are relatively easy to turn on my Yaesu FT-8800, but the upper 2 have a detente and click to each rotating position. I tried adjusting those as you describe and found it very difficult to control (although I was able to do it) with pressure from a single finger. But I would think the 2 upper knobs might be able to be fitted with an extension of sorts to give you better leverage and control. But if you're considering buying one, I'd see if someone local to you or a store has one you could look at and try before hand to make sure. Good luck! Don
