12.0.0 User Manual
I found the following statement on page 85 of the VarAC 12.0.0 User Manual:
"... any frequency listed in the dropdown is considered a CF and therefore has restrictions. Your VarAC will not forward Vmail or send a file while tuned to a frequency listed in the dropdown."
Our EmComm group uses channel 13 and 3 on various frequencies and recommends putting them the dropdown frequency menu. There is no problem sending files or Vmail. It appears that this statement in the manual is incorrect, regarding VMail and files..

Hi Bill N3XL
I have updated the manual by including the following information:
If you want VarAC to disable all restrictions in the calling frequencies list, uncheck this option in the Consider entire frequency list as CF menu.
It will publish with the next VarAC manual

Important note:
Some Emcomm groups start their own frequencies for their operations. This means that they add additional frequencies to the dropdown and use the other frequency as their CF for their EmComm operations.
What they have found is that Vmails are being forwarded on the CF, while they also want their team members to QSY to a slot around their CF.
Thus there is a VarAC CF restriction on other frequencies.
This means - any frequency listed in the dropdown is considered a CF and therefore has restrictions.
Your VarAC will not forward Vmail or send a file while tuned to a frequency listed in the dropdown.
If you want VarAC to disable all restrictions in the calling frequencies list, uncheck this option in the Consider entire frequency list as CF menu.
