Hmmm, that means pf-a reads the frequency, and pf-b reads S meter here.
I guess I could hit the enter key to get the current frequency.
I need another pf key!

The ones on the radio are called PF A and PF B.   I did err yesterday, 
the extra PF keys on an optional mic are called 1,2,3, and4,  not C,D,E, and
F as I had stated.

PF A is in the upper left of the radio next to the   main power button. 
   The one above the number pad is the PF B key.


If you set PF A to read SWR, it will also read power output while in TX. 
  This would be menu 79 set to 201.

If you set PF b (menu 80)   to 202, it will do nothing in RX, but will 
read SWR, ALC, and comp levels while in TX.   Use the key just to the 
left of the PF B key to toggle meter functions.

Of course,  from the list posted yesterday, there are a boatload of 
things you can set  the PF keys to.    Having a mic or box with  the 4 
extra keys is nice.   Also if you have a mic with up and down freq 
buttons, you can remap them as additional PF keys in the menus,   so you 
can have a total of 8 PF keys.
