We've added NO push button switches to use as a selection object instead of the built-in switch. You still need to track which menu option level/option was selected (e.g., a State machine), but it's not that hard to do. Jack, W8TEE

You don't have to modify the encoder. Just add an SPST Normally Open pushbutton switch and connect the two wires from the second switch to the wires that go to the two separate pins on the encoder. The 3 pins on the other side of the encoder are for the frequency encoding function and the two pins by themselves are the switch. No mods needed to the encoder at all. Jim - W0EB
