You can't keyboard enter the memories on any of the newer radios by Kenwood,
just use the speech button, it will tell you where you are. the 570 and 2000
tell you what memory number you are on but in my opinion they talk too much
I wish they were like Icom, you can select what it says and doesn't say but
I love everything I have,  nothing will be up for sale around here for a
while and that's unusual.
