Once you've opened the "Radio Control" panel, you have to choose which
satellite and mode you're interested in by selecting them from the
menu.  Click on "T" and the frequencies will be set to the mid-band
values.  Then click on "Track" and the frequencies will begin
changing.

If you want to change the frequencies, simply click on the triangles
above the appropriate digits and the value will change by one
increment each time (the upper triangle if you want to increase that
value, the lower one if decreasing).
