Hi Chris;

If you memorize your memory locations, you really don't need the cw readout
however, every little bit helps.

Also, I don't understand why you would want to listen to radio or TV
frequencies with a $249 ht because, then you are not able to listen to the
amateur frequencies at the same time.

I put the baseball game on the (b) band of the F6 and turn down the volume
on that band to the low setting.

So that if I am monitoring an amateur repeater, the audio is slightly
louder.

But this is only my perspective.
