The frequency selected in VFO B is stored in memory and can be changed to whatever you want, and thus can be recalled again.
BUT - and this must be a bug - on my rig as soon as I get to far out of the VFO A band range (for example if on the 20 meter band when I tune below 13000) with the B VFO there is a click then a 3 to 5 S unit drop in signal strength. Similar things happen on the other bands. This can't be right. It appears that the B VFO is changing band pass filters even though I have no second receiver and am listening to the A VFO. Definitely should not do this. ALSO, strange things happen to the 30 meter band stored frequency when I try this. That is after observing that the signal drops as above, I noticed that the 30 meter band changed so that both VFO A changes to the frequency I had selected on the 20 meter band and the B VFO changes to the where I left the B VFO while on the 20 meter band before changing down to 30 meters. It appears that if you tune the B VFO out of range then not only is the present band messed up but also at least the next lower band. Even worse than above.
