But, I can't ever change the mode to 2 to program a second or third mode. Do I have to program mode 1 then save it to the personality choice screen then program the second mode and save mode 2 to the personality screen too?

For example I want to program mode 1 for a set of frequencies that I can step through with the select button. Then I want to turn the knob to mode 2 where I have another different set of frequencies that I can step through with the select button. Turn the knob to 3 for mode 3 and a different set of frequencies there too. My problem is I can only program mode one. I can get everything to program exactly how I want, except once I put a 1 in for mode one, it will not let me change it to 2, so that I can go on to the next mode. If I save after I program each mode then I'll have a page of 16 personality files on my personality screen. Do you send each mode to the radio individually, or does it program all your desired frequencies and modes in one program? On my 2003 EDACS programmer software it's nothing like this. I've been playing with this DOS based software trying to figure it out, but I'm having this trouble with adding more than one mode. Any help is appreciated!!
