Gangue,

After a year of operation,  I have just discovered the VFO REV switch on =
my K2. (I am usually quicker on the uptake than this, ahem.....)

REV works very well , but I noticed that the S meter reading is odd.

 If I hold REV from say vfo A to vfo B the S meter remains reading the =
signal of vfo A. Same thing in reverse.=20

Actually it seems to freeze the reading as at the point in time  that I =
press the REV button . Also only those bar segments which were fully on =
at the time are lit ie the highest segment is ignored if it was =
flickering at the point I press REV.

Is this normal ?   I don't understand why this should happen (whether =
it's normal or not). Not a big deal but a little odd....

Also I note that my Up Down buttons on my mike switch the vfo's as =
expected but I don't get the audio beep - one beep for vfo A or two =
beeps for vfo B as mentioned in my manual. Did they omit this feature at =
the last minute? Firmware is v 1.06f

Coming up to my rig's first birthday..........need to buy it a =
present........hehehe
