Entering location with voice prompts

I am trying to enter my location so I can try satellite work. when I enter the radio menu, I hear location not set. Pressing the menu button doesn't do anything. I start to type my latitude and longitude and the speech says n. I'm not able to type anymore and hitting menu doesn't save anything. Is there a way to do this with the voiceprompts on? I am a blind op so this would be helpful. Thanks,

Mike

Location is entered into the radio info screen

This screen has multiple pages

You need to go down to the location page and enter the Lat Lon values

Do I just start typing the values once I hear it say location or do I need to do something else first? When I've tried to enter the values before, it gives an error beep eventually as if it gets full after a while.

Yes.

When it says Location, enter the Lat then then Lon
