Yes, mine:
PF1 = B->A
PF2 = SPKR+PH (I keep phones in rear, but sometimes just listen  
without them)

There are a couple of others I use - VOX GN and ANTIVOX (I haven't  
quite got that right yet) that I'd like on PF keys, but as per  
previous posts, I want to use M1-M4 and REC buttons for KDVR3, so that  
limits me to 2 PF keys.
Still noting what I use most from CONFIG, will probably want to switch  
from RF gain to Squelch when I've built using the XV144, could find  
myself changing that quite a bit.
And still tweaking ALC, so IF we had an assignable menu, they would  
have been on it at present, but not forever.
