Note:
If you press any key other than [0] ~ [9] or [Enter], or if you do
not make the next entry within 10 seconds, direct entry is
canceled and the VFO mode is restored.
If you press Mic [Enter] while entering a frequency, the new data

pressing [5] ~ [9] selects "5".
When the current step size is 6.25 kHz, 12.5 kHz, or 25 kHz,
entering the 10 kHz digit completes frequency setting. The
10 kHz and subsequent digits are set according to which key is
pressed for the 10 kHz digit as shown in the table below.
