• TEXT Memory
The ve channels of CW message memory (up to 50 characters each) may also be programmed using a
text-entry technique.
This technique is somewhat slower than sending the message directly from the keyer paddle, but accura-
cy of character spacing is ensured. Be sure to enter the character “}” at the end of the text message.
Example 1: CQ CQ CQ DE W6DXC K} (20 characters)
The sequential Contest Number (“Count up”) feature is another impressive feature of the CW Memory
Keyer.
Example 2: 599 10 200 # K} (15 characters)
