Please remind the leader at the beginning of the next mission, I'm sure that I'll forget...

I'll suggest that to nkey.I doubt he'll agree as it seems like the whole point of the numpad control was to server as hot keys that will allow the user to switch channels without opening the radio interface :-\
By the way, I'm still waiting for nkey to provide a server configuration key to automatically set LR frequency as alternate channel...

Although I feel it happens a bit despite that.I bet that most of the times the people that don't have LR frequency as alternate are the ones that interfere over the LR traffic... When I get that sort of interference I ask my guys who doesn't have an alternate channel configured and that's indeed the result.

That's why it's not mandatory. If that's the case, just turn it off.
