CW MODE OPERATION
USING THE BUILT-IN ELECTRONIC KEYER
Connect the cable from your keyer paddle to the front or rear panel KEY jack.
1. Press the
[
CW
]
mode button to engage CW operation.
The “ ” and “ ” icons will appear in the dis-
play. The “ ” icon will also appear in the display;
to indicate the CW monitor is activated.
ADVICE:
If you press the
[
CW
]
button repeatedly, after initially
selecting CW, you will engage the “CW Reverse” mode
(see page 75), whereby the “opposite” sideband injec-
tion is used, compared to the “normal” sideband. The
” and “ ” icons will appear in the display if
you select CW Reverse.
2. Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob to select the desired
operating frequency.
3. Press the
[
KEYER
]
button. The “ ” icon will
appear in the display, confirming that the built-in Elec-
tronic Keyer is now active.
4. Rotate the
[
SPEED
]
knob to set the desired sending
speed (4 ~ 60 WPM). Clockwise rotation of the
[
SPEED
]
knob will increase the keying speed.
ADVICE:
The frequency display will show the keying speed
for 3 seconds whenever the
[
SPEED
]
knob is
turned.
When you press either the “Dot” or “Dash” side of
your paddle, the CW keying tone will automati-
cally be generated.
5. Press the
[
BK-IN
]
button to engage automatic activa-
tion of the transmitter when you press either the “Dot”
or “Dash” side of your paddle. The “ ” icon will
appear in the display.
6. CW operation utilizing your paddle may now com-
mence.
ADVICE:
When you utilize your keyer paddle, the transmitter
will automatically be activated, and the CW charac-
ters (or a string of dots and dashes) will be transmit-
ted. When you release the keyer paddle contacts, trans-
mission will cease, and reception will be restored after
a brief delay. The delay time is user-programmable,
per the discussion on page 76.
ADVICE:
You may adjust the CW sidetone level with the
[
MONI
]
knob. Rotate the
[
MONI
]
knob for a comfortable lis-
tening level of the CW sidetone. To disable the CW
monitor, press the
[
MONI
]
button (the “ ” icon
will disappear).
If you set the
[
BK-IN
]
button to Off, you may practice
sending CW with the sidetone only, without having the
signal go out over the air.
If you reduce power via the Menu item “111 TGEN
TX PWR”, the ALC meter reading will increase. This
is normal and does not indicate any problem whatso-
ever (because increased ALC voltage is being used to
lower the power).
