Careful -- these shortcuts in FM are case-sensitive, and the symbols are not identical. The first key combination is CTRL + q (lowercase, not Q). Following that with a curly bracket produces the Ring symbol (an accent used in some languages). Following CTRL + q with a less-than sign produces the degree symbol. (If you type one after the other, you'll see there is a difference in appearance between the ring and the degree symbols.)
