[TRLog] Why no Ctrl-Fx keys in exchange mode?

You're right!  It's just that the instructions at the bottom of the
screen say only:
"Press ex function key to program <F3-F12, AltF1-AltF12, or ESCAPE to
exit>:"   

This is different from the CQ instructions which way, 
"Press CQ function key to program <F1, AltF1, CtrlF1>, or ESCAPE to
exit."

Ctrl-F keys are already available in Exchange mode.  It is documented in
manual 6.63, page 140, and I use them all the time.
