[TRLog] Why no Ctrl-Fx keys in exchange mode?

Folks,

There is a caveat to using the CTRL-Fx keys when running phone mode. In both 
CQ and S&P modes if DVP is enabled OR a DVK port is assigned, then CTRL-Fx is 
the shortcut to program a DVP message on the fly. The keys are available to 
program at all times, but will not be accessible under the above conditions.
