KAM
PACTOR
When sending an unproto (FEC) message (i.e. calling CQ), the information will be transmitted
n
times. This means that each frame will be transmitted
n
times before the next frame, but the re-
ceiving station will normally display the frame only once.

KAM
PACTOR
When linked in PACTOR, the KAM will attempt to assemble up to
n
received frames to obtain a
valid frame. This process is called memory ARQ. When a frame is received, the KAM checks the
CRC-16 checksum and if it is valid, that frame is stored in memory. The sending station will then
repeat the frame and the KAM will check again to see if the frame is completely correct. If not, the
KAM attempts to assemble a good frame by combining the frames received.

RTTY
This command sets the default baud rate that may be used during RTTY operation. It also sets the
baud rate used with PMODE if RTTY is specified as that parameter. Your favorite RTTY speed can
be entered here as RBAUD, and when operating at any other speed, instant reconfiguration to
RBAUD speed can be had by use of
CTRL-C Ø
command.
