Why not physically remove the chiclet button from it, drop a dab of cyanoacrylate glue (crazy glue) in the button and put the button back in? On Jul 20, 2013 9:31 AM, "N4AOF" n4aof.tom@gmail.com wrote:

It is hard to make ANY radio "goof proof"

Since you already have the UV-5RE+ model I won't point out that there are better choices for that particular characteristic.

While you can't disable the VFO/MR button, you can disable the VFO by setting the lower frequency limit higher than the upper frequency limit.

By the way, you would generally have more luck asking BaoFeng radio questions on a mail list for the radio instead of a list for the Chirp software. Try the UV-5R group on Yahoo at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/baofeng_uv5r
