<div><font size="2" face="Arial">In the Chirp settings page, I was able to
program the four programmable buttons on the microphone, using a
screenreader in windows 10 and Chirp Next, but I did not notice if there was
anything in Chirp Settings tab for the four vertical buttons to the right of
the numberpad on the microphone.</font></div>

something else?</font></div>

any reference in the manual that was readable with a screenreader as what
these buttons are.</font></div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Can anyone tell me if they are programmable or
not, and what they do?</font></div>

the top one beeps once, and after that, there is nothing from the
buttons.</font></div>
