If the contest exchange is static text, like RST and section
(“599 SFL”) or name and state (“Steve NY”), the exchange can
simply be put in one of the 20 text message locations (F1:F10,
Alt-F1:Alt-F10) and sent with a single keystroke.
If the contest exchange contains a QSO serial number, the
KLG has a feature to help. To use the serial number feature,
Use the “
#

where you want to send the serial number. For the
following examples, assume the next serial number is
234.

you get close to that number in a contest, you’re doing
very well!
