Introduction
DX Engineering Switch Pad 8 Transceiver External Keypad (
DXE-SWP8
) is an eight button
keypad for use with specific
Kenwood
and
Icom
transceiver models.
For specific Kenwood transceivers, in addition to voice memory
keyer access, the
DXE-SWP8
can also access a full
complement of 99 Personal Functions as described in the
Kenwood transceiver’s manuals.
With specific Icom transceivers, it provides a method of
selecting Voice, CW, RTTY and PSK keying memories without
the need to access the keyer menu on the transceiver's main
touch screen. This prevents the reduction of the functionality of
the main screen during contesting. It also enhances transceiver keyer memory access without the
need to integrate the radio with a computer program.
This convenient keypad connects to the 3.5 mm jack used for an external keypad on these
transceivers:
Kenwood TS-890S
Kenwood TS-990S
Icom IC-7610
Icom IC-7850
Icom IC-7851
Refer to your transceiver’s manual for full functional details of using an external keypad.
