hey gary:
you can toggle between low and high band FM using the band button once you 
are in the FM broadcast receive mode.
The band button is on the right side just above the enter key.
That said, you don't have to toggle since the band is continuous receive 
from 65 to 108MHZ.
Just type in 65 000 and then you can use the up arrow to scan up through the 
band if you want...there is no squelch control on the FM receiver 
unfortunately so you can have the radio do a frequency scan because it'll 
just stop on the open squelch.
Also, bear in mind that any 70MHZ band transmitters, like for microphones 
and hearing assistance devices are extremely wide banded...in the 100 or 
greater KC range whereas commercial broadcast FM is 20KC's wide.  This only 
means that audio from the wide banded devices may sound distorted or even be 
unreadable.
However, I haven't tested it myself on anything so it may receive wide 
banded FM just fine.

have fun and let us know what you find down there.
