No, that's command 0x0f which is documented, and can only write to

That was something I was hoping to do also, if I can't obtain an RPB
or RPC, but can obtain an 86/12A, 86/14, or 86/30.  It's encouraging
that you've confirmed that it's possible, but discouraging that it
sounds like a lot of work.
