There is nothing better than using equipment that you have constructed 
yourself, and a nice looking keyer can be a great addition to any station. 

 

And you want it to be mechanically durable, so it can be used reliably 
when and where you want to, for years to come. 

 
Our directions are designed to help you accomplish these goals.  Please 
follow them carefully!

 

 
 
TAKING A LOOK AT THE CW700 MICRO MEMORY KEYER 
 

Let’s take a good look at the CW700 for a moment.  Your new keyer is a fully 
functional iambic keyer that is controlled by a small micro computer IC chip 
supplied with the kit.  You may notice that the PC board is divided into three 
parts.  These parts are, the main board, the front control board and the 
paddles.  It must be noted that our directions are VERY important to help you 
join these boards together correctly. 
 
The main board is a conventional board that connects most of the 
components.  The on-board computer, battery, speaker and jacks are all 
mounted on this board. 
 
The front board contains all of the necessary holes and connections for the 
controls that you will see on the front of the unit.  You may note the many 
contacts, or pads, that interface it with the main control board. 
 
The portion of the board consisting of the paddles will become touch 
sensitive keys in only a few short steps.  We will show you how to adjust 
their sensitivity to ensure you the most satisfaction and enjoyment. 
 
Our specially designed case has been prepared to make your project look 
it’s best.  The case will fit in with most any ham station. 
 
We have supplied you with all of the electrical components necessary to 
complete the kit.  This includes the onboard computer.  The only thing that 
you must supply is a nine volt battery, and of course some effort in putting it 
together!
