IMPORTANT
The keypad has an auto-repeat feature. If a key is held down for more than 1 second, 
the key action will repeat, automatically, at the rate of 15 keystrokes per second. This is 
particularly useful when editing numeric fields, with many digits, such as frequency or 
data rate. 
The keypad, in its original and current incarnations, is shown in Figure 5-2:
