Hi Dave,

Thanks for your response and, yes, this information is on page 15 of the 
C2 manual as well.  However, this tells you how the CMP/ALC display mode 
gets activated.  The problem I'm having is switching it back to SWR/RF.

You should be able to do this by tapping the Keyer/Mic knob and this is 
working here on the bench this morning, however, in the field sometimes 
this does not seem to work and I end-up stuck in CMP/ALC mode.  It might 
be finger trouble on my end but this has happened several times.

Can you confirm tapping the Keyer/Mic knob is the only way to switch 
between these two display modes?

Many thanks,

Gary
