My radio says Cancel on the last zero when I try to enter
100.000 and jumps back to what the VFO was set on prior.
And it will not allow input of a leading zero. Also it will
allow frequency input keyed in on the bottom band.
The radio is a Baofeng F-11, just a re-badged UV5R with its
own firmware.

Jim,
Your right, when I saw that, I put mine in VFO & pressed Zero, nothing.

I don't think the VFO will let you key in a leading ZERO

I don't have a radio handy so I can't verify this, but I believe you would set STEP=10KHz, key in 100.000 and then press the down arrow key until you get to 076.040

Laine,

Enter the leading zero. So in this case you would enter 076040 which would be accepted as 76.040.

Hello Jim 

You said you can enter any frequency in to the radio via the keypad 

how do you put in a frequency like 76.040 seeing its only 5 numbers

Cheers
