\W
nn require a two digit
parameter. Don’t forget to enter the parameters as this will cause the command to be ignored.

List of Buffered Commands
Jump to message (Buffered)
\Jn
where n is a number 1-9 or letter A,B,C. F1-F9 would be
\1
to
\9
, F10 is
\A
, F11 is
\B
, and F12 is
\C
.
Here are two simple examples:
Load Slot F1 with:
CQ CQ \J3
Load Slot F2 with:
QRZ QRZ \J3
Load Slot F3 with:
DE K1EL K
Message F1 will be sent as:
CQ CQ
DE K1EL K
Message F2 will be sent as:
QRZ QRZ DE K1EL K
Jump can be used to make a message loop:
Load Slot F10 with:
CQ CQ CQ DE K1EL K1EL K1EL \JA
After sending
CQ CQ CQ DE K1EL K1EL K1EL
we loop back to the beginning and send it again. This will
repeat forever until either paddle or
DEL
key is pressed. When composing a message like this, be sure to
put a space or delay at the end, otherwise the first letter will be sent after the last with no word space.
Call a message (Buffered)
\ Cn
where n is a number 1-9 or letter A,B,C. F1-F9 would be
\1
to
\9
, F10 is
\A
, F11 is
\B
, and F12 is
\C
.
The call command will jump to the specified message, send that message, and after the message completes
the stream will return to where it was called from. It is more flexible than a jump to message. An example of
this command is:
Load slot F1 with:
\C \C DE \B \B BTU OM KN
Load Slot F11 with:
K1EL
Load slot F12 with:
WA1ABC
Message F1 will play as:
WA1ABC WA1ABC DE K1EL K1EL BTU OM KN
This illustrates a powerful feature; you can build up a message that contains other messages. Message can
be reused by substituting different callsigns in F11 and F12. By using F11 and F12 this way, the built in
exchange feature (^X or ENTER) can be used as well (see “Insert Exchange Message” on page 8).
Set an HSCW Speed (Buffered)
\H<n> n=1 to 6
where n is a number representing the lpm rate divided by 1000.
For example,
\H2
selects 2000 lpm and
\H4
selects 4000 lpm. Commonly used rates are 1000, 2000, 4000
and 6000 lpm in the USA and 1000, 3000, 4000 lpm in Europe.
HSCW is mostly used for working stations via Meteor Scatter propagation. This method of operation calls for
short bursts of characters to be sent repetitively at high speeds for a predetermined period. The receiving
station listens and records the sporadically received bursts and plays them back at a slow speed to decipher
the Morse message.
NOTE!!
: Remember to put a reset speed command
/R
at the end of a message to restore normal CW
