I'm trying to help W5ZPA at PJ2 right now. They can't get the F-keys to work
on RTTY. I'm out of answers for them. They are using
10.82A.
Below you can read what they've tried so far. They said they can transmit and
receive, but the F keys are working in RTTY mode.
Any other suggestions? Might copy them on your reply. Mike's E-mail address
is below. I'll be on the road today. They leave on
the 17th. They are trying to give PJ2 out on RTTY for those that need it.
73, Don AA5AU

We tried that Don and it still does not work. We are using FSK mode not LSB.
Any other things to try?
