Hi Colleen, I've got one of those Kenwood THF6A transceivers. You can enter your frequency directly with a keypad. The radio can also be programmed with a computer Kenwood software and a cable. Hope this helps. 73, Eric KU3I __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4318 (20090808) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
