CW Identifier Setup
The ARTS™ feature includes a CW identifier, as discussed previously. Every ten minutes
during ARTS™ operation, the radio can be instructed to send “

” if
this feature is enabled. The callsign field may contain up to 16 characters.
Here’s how to program the CW Identifier:

5.
Press the [
V/M
] key momentarily to display the previously stored
callsign.

Press the [

] key momentarily to
clear
any previous

Rotate the
DIAL
knob to select the first letter/number of your
callsign, then press the [
V/M
] key momentarily to save the first
letter/number and move on to the next character.
8.
Repeat the previous step, as many times as necessary, to com-
plete your callsign. Note that the “slant bar” (
–

the available characters, should you be a “portable” station.
9.
If you mistake, press the [
BAND
] key to back-space the cursor,
then re-enter the correct letter/number.

HM/RV
] key to delete all data after the cursor that may have been previ-

H/L
] key momentarily to con-
firm the callsign, then press the
PTT

tion.
