NOTE:

If you subsequently decide to use the “Text Memory” technique for memory storage, please note that the contents of a message stored using keyer paddle input will not be transferred over when you select “Text Memory technique” on a particular memory register (the Menu Mode Setting is set to “tyP1”).

You must exercise care in sending to ensure that the spaces between letters and words are accurately done; if your timing is off, the spacing may not come out right in the stored message.

For ease in setting up the keyer memories, we recommend you set Menu item “052 A1A F-TYPE” and/or “054 A1A R-TYPE” to “ACS” (Automatic Character Spacing) while you are programming the keyer memories.
