Yes
2. An entry into the 'Power' box in the 'F5 Extended Info' block is overriding the 'Tx Pwr' value in the log, where it should be putting its value into the 'RX Pwr' log column. I would think this 'Power' label should be 'RX Pwr' to avoid confusion.
No it should not be adding the power to the 'RX Pwr' field it is there for recording the TX Power and saving it to the TX Power field - This enables the user to change the TX power 'on the fly' when for instance he has two radios connected and changes from a high power radio to one of lower power or turning on/off an amplifier.

It should not be labeled RX Pwr but it could be made more understandable to change the label to "TX Pwr"
