The Favourites Manager window for managing the favourites frequency database.
The display is Windows Explorer like. The folder icons indicate what are known as Root Folders and in this image, the first 8 folders are root folders covering from 160m through to 6m. Note that in the 6m folder there are 2 frequency entries and also a folder (highlighted) holding 6m Beacon frequencies. The layout is entirely up to you but it should really have some structure so that you can remember what frequency is stored where in case you need to change it.
The checkboxes to the left of the folders and frequencies either enable or disable the display in the Selection window.
