Here: (Alt-P O 5)
                       OTHER CW MESSAGE MEMORY STATUS
 1. Call Okay Now - } OK %
 2. CQ Exchange   - _~ %5NN #
 3. CQ Ex Name    -
 4. QSL Message   - 73 \ TEST
 5. QSO Before    -  SRI QSO B4 73 \ TEST
 6. Quick QSL     - TU
 7. Repeat S&P Ex - 5NN #
 8. S&P Exchange  - ~ %5NN #
 9. Tail end msg  - R

Alt-P O 5 is the automatic QSO b4 message, CQ F7 is a memory to send that
message manually. Not related to two radio mode.

Some of them are Alt-F1 thru Alt-F3 (for two radio mode),
CQ and EX F7 if ALWAYS SEND BLIND CQ = TRUE
EX F2, as described here:

Also note a difference beween CW and SSB operation:

                     EXCHANGE FUNCTION KEY MEMORY STATUS
F1 - Set by the MY CALL statement in config file
F2 - Set by S&P EXCHANGE and REPEAT S&P EXCHANGE
F3 - 5NN
                     EXCHANGE FUNCTION KEY MEMORY STATUS
F1 - MYCALL.DVP
F2 - EXF2.DVP

You can't program EX F2 in CW, only via Alt-P 8 and 7
 7. Repeat S&P Ex - 5NN #
 8. S&P Exchange  - ~ %5NN #

but you can record into EXF2.DVP on SSB. You can also record using Alt-P 8 and
7 into
 7. Repeat S&P Ex - RPTSPEX.DVP
 8. S&P Exchange  - SAPEXCHG.DVP
so that's 3 voice files for F2 in SSB.
I'm not sure about which keystrokes invoke which of them in whcih situations.
