Menu 2 Acknowledgement Request
When activated the BOGEYBOARD requests an acknowledgement back from the
receiver. If an acknowledgement is not received, BOGEYBOARD will retry again
(up to 4 times) until an acknowledgement is received.
If you are using a BOGEYBOARD to operate multiple receivers at the same time
(one to many) we recommend turning OFF the acknowledgement to avoid RF
contention with the Ack signals
