36.6.2 CW Mode Transmitter Control Panel
In the CW configuration, the transmitter control panel contains controls for:
ï‚· Sidetone Button: Tapping this button enables or disables the CW Sidetone.
ï‚· Sidetone Slider: Adjusts the volume (or amplitude) of the CW note. Moving the slider to
the right increases the volume. Moving the slider to the left decreases the volume.
ï‚· Sidetone Pan Slider: Moving the Sidetone Pan Slider adjusts the sidetone from left to right
channel audio, for use with headphones or stereo speakers.
ï‚· Pitch control: The pitch slider adjusts the pitch of the CW signal in 10Hz steps.
ï‚· Delay Slider: Moving the control to the right increases the time delay in milliseconds (ms)
between the end of a keying element and the point in time when the radio transitions from
transmit to receive. This effectively controls the QSK characteristics of the radio, where a
value of 0ms is full-break QSK. Increasing this value will allow different degrees of QSK
(semi-break), such as listening between letters or words while sending.
ï‚· Tune Pwr Slider: The Tune Pwr (Power) slider sets the output power level when TUNE is
enabled. Moving the slider to the right increases the RF power output. A value of 0 will not
produce any RF output. The scale, from 0 – 100 approximates RF output wattage.
ï‚· ATU MEM button: When illuminated, this button turns on the ATU memories. See section
24, How to Operate the ATU for complete details.
ï‚· TX Profiles: The operator may choose from a list of transmit profiles defined in the radio.
See section 16, How to Use Profiles for complete details.
