Good news and thanks!
Looking fwd for this great improvement to be download-redy for the rest of
us.
I am a new (up to 2 months) KX2 user so the first things I found myself
missing is more Pfn buttons, at least 2. Now there going to be 4 of them!
So my first set would be PF1 =VOX, PF2= XIT, PF3=BKLIGHT, PF4=PS. Using the
radio car mobile a lot I already use the existing Pfn for the VOX in CW
mode, and the XIT is the second mostly needed. I will finaly decide on the
last two after some more time of variety usage.
