Lost Ch37 on Icom 401

Not entirely a rib related question I admit... but I reckon someone out there will be able to answer this. Is Jon Brooks anywhere near?

I re-programmed the call channel on my radio from 37a to 74 (my local harbour office) thinking this would be a useful shortcut. Anyway, I realise the error of my ways now as I have lost any way of calling the water taxi. 37 doesn't appear on the channel list so I can't even select it manually to call the taxi. How do i get it back. Strange thing is, on another 401 (still with 37 on the call button) 37 does appear in the channel list and can therefore be selected with the up/down buttons as well as the call button.

Any clues?

sounds like you have managed to change it from International to US.
Have you and I or a U in the display?
It should be I.
If its U 37a will not appear

any more problems call me in the office tomorrow
