FT-270R OPERA TING MANUAL52
CW Identifier Setup
The ARTS™ feature includes a CW identifier, as discussed previously. Every ten minutes
during ARTS™ operation, the radio can be instructed to send “DE (your callsign) K” if
this feature is enabled. The callsign field may contain up to 6 characters.
Here’s how to program the CW Identifier:
1. Press the
[
F/L
]
key, then press the
[
0
(
SET
)]
key to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 11: CW WRT.
3. Press the
[
F/L
]
key momentarily to display any previously-stored
callsign.
4. Press the
[
F/L
]
key again to clear any previous callsign.
5. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the first letter/number of your
callsign, then press the
[
F/L
]
key momentarily to save the first
letter/number and move on to the next character.
6. Repeat the previous step, as many times as necessary, to com-
plete your callsign. If you make a mistake, press the
[
(
MHz
)]
key to move back to the previous letter/number’s slot, then re-
select the correct letter/number.
7. When you have finished entering your entire callsign and it con-
tains less than 6 characters, press and hold in the
[
F/L
]
key for
one second to confirm the callsign. (if you callsign has exactly 6
characters, you do not need to press and hold in
[
F/L
]
in this step).
8. Press the PTT switch to save the settings and exit to normal operation.
9. Press the
[
F/L
]
key, then press the
[
0
(
SET
)]
key to enter the Set mode again.
10. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 10: CWID.
11. Press the
[
F/L
]
key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob to
set this Item to “TX ON” (to enable the CW ID function).
12. Press the PTT switch to save the settings and exit to normal
operation.
You may check your work by monitoring the entered
callsign. To do this, repeat steps 1- 7 above, then press
the MONI switch.
