Hi Kelly,
No, keyboard lock is not on.
I can go through the process of programming a new channel or
transferring a channel to a bank, but when I press whatever key is
required to complete the step, PTT, V/M, etc, the radio just does
not accept the change.
Very frustrating.

Hello All,
I posted a similar plea to this previously but did not get a
reply. Fingers crossed this time...
I can not program my FT-60R from the keyboard anymore. S/No
6N450402 Made in Japan:-)
And yes, I know how to do it. I have had the radio for many,
many years and recently tried to set up another bank for a
special event.
The radio will no longer accept any manual programming. I can't
find a "Program Lockout" SET function.
I read somewhere that the memory programming either gets
corrupted or the memory chip programming capability goes faulty.
And that the system firmware cannot be rewritten via the normal
programming port the way modern radios can. (FW in Masked
ROM???)
Otherwise the radio works fine. I can use existing memory
locations and Banks just fine and VFO operation is fine.
I just can't program new channels or Banks.
Haven't tried Chirp.
I am reluctant to to use any of the F1-F4 Memory Clear functions
in case the Memory Write function is, in fact, unusable as I
have an awful lot of channels preprogrammed.
Does anyone have any experience in this regard?
Any assistance welcome.
