[. . . ] · Press and hold Mic [DWN] to send dots or Mic [UP] to send dashes in CW mode. 40 and select "PF". This function reverses the position of the dot and dash paddle positions. As a default, the left paddle sends dots and the right paddle sends dashes. When this function is ON, the left paddle will send dashes and the right paddle will send dots. 1 Press [MENU], then press [Q-M. IN]/ [Q-MR] or turn the MULTI/CH control to access Menu No. · The left paddle now sends dashes and the right paddle now sends dots. 39 and select "oFF". 36 RTTY is the data communications mode with the longest history. It was originally designed for use with mechanical teletypewriters which were often used before personal computers became common. Now you can easily start operating RTTY with a personal computer and MCP. Unlike Packet, each time you type a letter, it is transmitted over the air. What you type is transmitted and displayed on the computer screen of the recipient. RTTY operation uses frequency shift keying (FSK) and the 5-bit Baudot code or the 7-bit ASCII code to transmit information. · FSK shift is the difference in frequencies between a mark and a space. · The 170 Hz shift (default) is normally used on the Amateur bands for the RTTY. · Select "oFF" (default) to transmit a mark when keying down or "on" to transmit a space. 46 and select "2175" (high tone) or "1275" (low tone) for mark. · "FSK" appears. 8 Begin sending data from your computer. 9 When finished transmitting, enter a command from your computer to return to reception mode. The following frequencies (measured in kHz) are commonly used for RTTY operation: U. S. A. / Canada 1800 ~ 1840 3605 ~ 3645 (DX: 3590) 7080 ~ 7100 (DX: 7040) 10140 ~ 10150 14070 ~ 14099. 5 18100 ~ 18110 21070 ~ 21100 24920 ~ 24930 28070 ~ 28150 IARU Region 1 (Europe/ Africa) 1838 ~ 1842 3580 ~ 3620 7035 ~ 7045 10140 ~ 10150 14080 ~ 14099. 5 18101 ~ 18109 21080 ~ 21120 22920 ~ 24929 28050 ~ 28150 PSK31 is a digital modulation method used in amateur radio communications. You can perform data communications in real-time using a keyboard, like RTTY. Additionally, because of the narrow bandwidth (31. 25 Hz) you can even use PSK31 on congested frequencies. Another merit to PSK31 is that it can be enjoyed with a simple antenna and low transmit power. [. . . ] · A confirmation message appears when performing the Full Reset. Otherwise, press any other key to cancel the Partial Reset and return to normal operation. · All frequencies, modes, memory data, adjustment values, and AT preset data are set to the factory default values. Perform a VFO Reset if a key or control does not function according to the instructions in this manual. · Memory channel data · Menu settings · Antenna tuner preset data · ANT 1/ ANT 2 selection data · Frequency and mode data for the Auto Mode function · Various adjustment setting values 1 Turn the transceiver power OFF.
