Call Sign Entered
The SideKar
gives you the ability to capture another station’s
call sign and have it sent out automatically in messages and
automatically populate the log. You may be familiar with this
feature in most contest loggers and PSK31 or RTTY programs.
To use it,
Enter the call by pressing
Alt-C.
Enter up to 10
characters with the keyboard or paddle. Backspace to
make changes.
In any of the 20 SideKar messages, use the
exclamation point (!) where you want the other station’s
call to appear.
To Save it, press
Enter
on the keyboard or hold the
TAB/ENTER button.
Example:
-
Press Alt-C and enter KB3SII.
-
In message 1, enter: ! de KF0UR. The SideKar will
then send
“KB3SII de KF0UR”.
Press Alt-C again to see the call entered, and backspace as
needed to edit it.
The entered call will be there until the QSO is logged.
