[CQ-Contest] Function Keys Windows 8.1

[TG9AJR Juan Munoz]

Hello everyone,

Yes you can setup your Function Keys to work as Function rather than MultiMedia (I think that it was in my laptop Dell),
when turn in on your computer go to your BIOS and in the setup has an option to change the Function Keys, save and
exit and then when starts again it works normal.

Thanks to Juan EA5RS and Stan K5GO for the heads up.
