filter center frequency. Should you experience difficulty you should set the CW bandwidth wider -
to 400 or 500 Hz until you become more accustomed to the unit.
The KAM has an autoranging speed lock capability of plus or minus 20 WPM from the CW
speed you have set. If you are unable to copy CW when the signal is properly tuned, try pressing
CTRL-C R
to reset the tracking speed to a value closer to the estimated speed you are receiving.
While in the CW Receive Mode speed changes may be made with a
CTRL-C
command followed
by a number of 1, 2, up to 0. Each number will increment CW speed by 5 WPM. If speeds higher
than 50 WPM are desired, you must return to the Command Mode and enter a command of CW
XX.
You can always return to Command Mode by typing
CTRL-C
followed by the letter
X
.
Special CW characters: Several of the most commonly used prosigns are embedded in the KAM
program. Keys on your terminal or computer which have no meaning in Morse Code are assigned
as "special function" keys. The table that follows, illustrates the key which, if pressed while in CW
transmit, will generate the corresponding prosign.
