What is a way to enable quick access to a favorite frequency on your transceiver?

Storing the frequency in a memory channel is an effective way to enable quick access to a favorite frequency on your transceiver. Memory channels allow operators to save specific frequencies for immediate recall, which streamlines the process of tuning in to frequently used channels without needing to manually input the frequency each time. This feature is particularly useful for emergency communications, repeaters, or simply for regular contacts, as it saves time and increases efficiency during operation.

In contrast, enabling or disabling CTCSS tones, which are used for privacy on the same frequency, does not directly facilitate faster access to a frequency. Similarly, using scan mode can help locate active frequencies but is less efficient than directly recalling a stored frequency, especially for regular use.
