I have seen the ILS freq in PARK mode many times, often after setting up the route, including the ARR, and then opening the NAV RAD page on the CDU. It changes once I get within a certain range of the arrival airport (I'm not sure what distance that is but it appears to be around 60nm, possibly sooner).

I.e. It will change from 110.10/335 PARK to 110.10/335A (automatic mode?).

Yes, I switched when I was about 40 Nm.  No problem.  Thank you for taking the time to help me out.

Problem solved!  Astutely observed by "VS" in the 777 forum the ILS was in "PARK MODE" on the NAV RAD. Never heard of that, but I just executed a perfect auto land.

Thank you for your help, appreciate it.
