You can have separate banks for each city. That way you can scan just the repeaters for the city you are in. I have a radio with 1000 channels and no memory banks. I have to hook it up to the computer and reprogram it whenever I go to a different area.
On the Yaesu radios that support memory banks, you don’t have to use them. You can put the same channel in multiple banks or put every channel in one bank.
Interedting, the thing is my little UV-K5 can scan its 200 channel bank in about 2 seconds, so when traveling I just run that to figure out what repeaters are nearby. Or just look at the display name of the channel, since it can show 10 characters I have them named by location and what links they have.
