3. Press the FH-2’s [1] ~ [5] key whichever one you just recorded in. A “PLAY” icon
will appear in the display, and you will hear the results in the sidetone, but no RF
energy will be transmitted.
Note: You may adjust the monitor level using the [MONI] knob.
On-The-Air CW Message Playback
1. Press the [BK-IN] button to enable transmission. Either Full- or Semi-break-in
will be engaged, depending on the setting of Menu item “043 A1A BK-IN.”
2. Press the FH-2’s [1] ~ [5] key, depending on which CW Memory Register’s message
you wish to transmit. A “PLAY” icon will appear in the display, and transmit the
programmed message on the air.
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”).
TEXT Memory
The five channels of CW message memory (up to 50 characters total) may also be
programmed using a text-entry technique. This technique is somewhat slower than
when you send the message directly from your keyer paddle, but accuracy of character
spacing is ensured.
Example 1: CQ CQ CQ DE W6DXC K (20 characters)
And we will utilize another powerful feature of the CW Memory Keyer, the sequential
Contest Number (“Countup”) feature.
Example 2: 599 10 200 # K (15 characters)
Text Memory Storage
1. Press the [MENU] button to enter the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the [SELECT] to select the CW Memory Register into which you wish to
store the message; we are now selecting the message entry technique (Text entry).
