[Trlog] DVP board

Thanks to all for the notes that DVP boards should work just fine.  I 
guess I wasn't sure how many people were still using them.

Bottom line is it turned out to be connection error.  I swapped a couple 
of grounds, and when I plugged the DVP output into the radio, it caused 
the problem.  I didn't have it connected to the radio when I tried CT, 
since I just used the monitor function.  Speaking of which, now I guess 
I have to figure out a way to monitor the thing, since my K2 doesn't 
have a monitor function.  And, there seems to be a bit of RF feedback, 
but some beads and toroids will hopefully take care of that. 

Tree:  I could not get the hot keys to do anything even with changing 
the USE BIOS CALLS parameter.  Are they supposed to work?
