2. Press PTT Toggle to key the radio. Monitor the deviation obtained.
3. Adjust the slider, spin or edit control (press ENTER to confirm your selection/send a softpot value) 
until a deviation of 3.1-3.4 kHz is obtained.
4. Press PTT Toggle again to dekey the radio.
5. Program the softpot value into the radio by pressing Program.
6. Exit the DTMF Deviation function.
