OPERATION USING STRAIGHT KEy/ExTERNAL KEYING DEVICE

device, please follow the instructions in this section.

3. Press the [FUNC] key, as needed, to recall Operating Function Row 8 [WRI, PLY, BK,
KYR].
4.
Press the [C](BK) key to activate full break-in ("QSK") operation. In this mode, press-
ing the key will cause instantaneous transmission
of your CW carrier signal, and releas-
ing
ofthe key will cause an instantaneous return to receive. The receiver recovery time
is fast enough to allow reception between words, as well as dots and dashes within
individualletters. When full break-in
is active, the "BK" icon will become Bold.
5. For "Semi-Break-In" operation (similar to VOX on SSB/AM), press and hold in the
[C](BK) key for
Y:z second. This instantly recalls MENU #51 (CW BREAK-IN). Now
rotate the
MAIN DIAL so as to select "SEMI" instead of "FULL" on the display. Press
the [FUNC] key momentarily to save the new break-in selection and exit to normal
operation.
6. The CW Hang Time (after which the FT-IOOD returns to the RECEIVE mode after a CW
transmission in the "SEMI" mode), can be adjusted using MENU #49 (CW-DELAY).
CD Press and hold in the [FUNC] key for Y:z second to enter the MENU mode.
@ Rotate the SELECT knob to select MENU #49 (CW-DELAY).
® Rotate the MAIN DIAL to select a longer or shorter delay time (default: 0.5 sec-
ond).
@) When done, press the [FUNC] key momentarily to save the new setting and exit to
normal operation.
7. To practice your CW sending, press the [C](BK) key until the "BK" icon becomes
faint. Now, pressing the key will cause the
CW sidetone to be heard, but your radio will
not be transmitting a signal on the air.

~ _ a, press the [C](BK) key to disable the transmitter momentarily. Press the key,
