Yaesu FT-1500M

I recently went to a hamfest and sold my old Kenwood TM-241a and bought a Yaesu FT-1500M . All I can say is programming a Kenwood is sure different than programming a Yaesu.
It is supposed to have a broadband receiver so I can use it to monitor my EMS/Fire dispatch frequency. But it won't tune above 147.995. How do I get the extended receive to work? Is there a programming step I am missing? Or is it a possibility I have European model? If so how do I confirm it?
