Hi Eric,

First of all, Yes, you do enter the pound sign and then enter the 
frequency using the asterisk as the decimal such as in 146.94 where the 
. is pressed by hitting  the asterisk.

As for the pl tones etc., you can get all sorts of documentation on the 
thf-6a at:

http://www.icanworkthisthing.com and all the files are in .txt format 
including a list of pl tones, manual, menus, and keyboard layout.
