  I have never used the memory or scratch pad features in my Omni VI+. Tonight
  I decided to try out the scratch pad.
  I stored a frequency in the scratch pad and then moved to a different
  frequency. I pushed  m>vfo and brought up the frequency that I stored. Up to
  now all is well and good.
  Lets assume that the frequency in the scratch pad is a DX station that I
  want to monitor and try to get when the time is right. The frequency that I
  moved to is one that I am calling CQ. So when I go to the scratch pad freq I
  want to return to my CQ frequency.
  Other than turning the VFO to get back to the CQ frequency,  I have not
  figured out how to return.  Is there something that I am missing here?
  If there is not a quick return path, this is totally useless.
  Does anyone use this fearure?  I know that I can do this using VFO A and VFO
  B but that should not  have to be the way to do it.

  Thanks 73 Paul K9OT
