Likewise, when the band is open, it's easy to put some frequencies
into the memory rather than the local stations, again to allow for
easy frequency jumping. This also applies to AM.

Last Sunday night was Yom Kippur and all of the Israeli stations went
off the air. On the sabbath they usually transmit a carrier.

There was a short period if the band had been open for me to listen
to DX stations before the fast started, but unfortunately the bands
were not "open". :-(
