Sorry - at first read I thought this was a complaint about providing an explanation when none was requested. The only 4th column digits the RLC-1 uses are for the 1st digit of all default command names, which is "C", & for programming macros. For the former, simply change the command names for all 42 commands to something that doesn't use the 4th column. This can be done via the serial port or by using a radio that does have 16 button DTMF capability. Unfortunately I don't see a way around needing a 16 button pad to program macros, so strictly speaking my statement saying the RLC-1 not needing the 4th column is incorrect. But since the RLC-1 only has 7 macros it's not something you'd do very often. I haven't sent a 4th column digit to my RLC-1 in over 10 years. Bob NO6B
