Uv 5r frequency input

[tacchinol]

I am trying to enter a frequency in frequency mode but it keeps canceling my input then I enter the 6th digit.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Lou

That usually means you entered a frequency that is out of range of the radio.

What is the frequency you are trying to enter?
You can't always enter the last one, two or three decimal places depending on the step setting.
Make sure the step is set to the proper increment (2.5, 5.0, 6.25 kHz).
When you try to enter the frequency it will round down and then you have to use the up/down arrows to get to the correct frequency.

Thanks Tom. I'll try that tonight.
