paddle or Esc key to begin editing. If you do not interrupt it the message will play to its end and

When you interrupt the message you set an insertion point. You can do four things from an inser-
tion point. You can delete the last word, insert a word, end the message, or continue playing the
message by keying in "P".
To delete the last word played enter "D". The keyer will play the word before the word that was
deleted. Now you can delete another word, insert text, end the message, or continue playing the
message by entering "P".
To insert text enter "I". Enter your text. At the end of your text enter "+". The keyer will exit the
insert mode. Now you can delete a word, insert text, end the message, or continue playing the
message by keying in "P".
To end the message at your insertion point enter "+". The keyer will end the message and exit the
edit mode.
The edit feature is adequate for short messages where there are few changes. However, to edit a
large message, 100 - 4000 characters, the edit message mode is very impractical, if you use large
messages, edit your messages with an ASCII text editor and then upload them into a memory.
