Agreed re: Mic button setting, that happens to me all the time. Would it be
possible to have it turn it off when switching to DATA A? Also, widening
the filter BW out to the full 4kHz at the same time? Perhaps there's other
uses of DATA A I don't know that might make these requests invalid, so
forgive me if so. :)

Thanks!
