[TenTec] Multifunction Controls on my 6&2

[d.e.warnick at comcast.net]

Bill,
Excel (or any other spreadsheet can be handy for this.

Make 3 columns.
As you read each function in the manual, put a meaningful title in column 1.
Put the Multi instructions in column 2
Put notes in column 3.

When you've done all this, sort the spreadsheet in ascending order (highlight all entries).

You will now have a list with your functions in alphabetical order in column 1. Easy to look up.

Finally, post your work to the reflector. Hundreds of guys will use it
