You certainly can do that.  All you have to do is write a macro containing
the command "SWH29;" and assign this macro to one of the programmable keys,
M1-M4 or PF1 or PF2. You can just use a single command in a macro if that's
all you want.

Sometimes I'll assign a macro to both the tap and hold function of a memory
M1-M4 so as to avoid the chance of getting the wrong one in the heat of a DX
pileup.

"I think you can use PF1 or 2 to select the APF.  This will still
require a "hold", and an inadvertent tap will interfere with the RIT
setting.  Don't know if this will be better.  I don't use my RIT so I
like this set up.  Maybe a "slight" firmware change would allow each
user to define which function is "tap" and which is "hold"."
