Storing a Message into Memory

3. Rotate the [SUB VFO-B] knob to set the selected Memory Register to “tyP2.” If you
want to use your keyer paddle for message entry on all memories, set all five Menu
items (#020 ~ 024) to “tyP2.”

Message Memory Programming (Using Your Paddle)
Set the operating mode to CW.
Set the [BK-IN] button to Off.
Turn the internal Electronic Keyer On by pressing the [KEYER] button, if
necessary.
Press the FH-2’s [MEM] key.
Press the [1] ~ [5] key on the FH-2 to begin the memory storage process.
Send the desired message using your keyer paddle.
Press the [MEM] key on the FH-2 once more at the end of your message. Up to 50
characters may be stored among the five memories.
Note: you must exercise care in sending to ensure that the spaces between letters
and words are accurately done; if your timing is off, the spacing may not come out
right in the stored message.
For ease in setting up the keyer memories, we recommend you set Menu item “051
A1A F-TYPE” and/or “053 A1A R-TYPE” to “ACS” (Automatic Character Spacing)
while you are programming the keyer memories.
