select CW using [CW/FSK (REV)].

SELECTING TRANSMISSION POWER
It is wise to select a lower transmission power if
communication is still reliable. This lowers the risk of
interfering with others on the band. When operating
from battery power, selecting a lower transmission
power allows you more operating time before
recharging is necessary. This transceiver allows
you to change the transmission power even while
transmitting.
