and PSK modes as well when used conversationally with the internal
keyer and message memories.
<PDL>: Selects keyer paddle normal (jack tip = DOT) or reverse (tip =
DASH).
<IAMB>: Selects the desired Iambic keying mode. The default is mode
A (IAMB A), which is generally considered easier by many CW users.
Mode B (IAMB B) may be preferred by operators who learned to do
"squeeze-keying" with another keyer having this or a similar mode.
Both modes provide dot and dash memories--enabling fast code
speeds--but with slightly different "element-insert" timing.
<WEIGHT>: Sets the dot/space ratio. For most users, a value of 1.15
to 1.20 is ideal.
Note: Low values of weight may result in a dot/space ratio that
sounds too "staccato" on the air. Do not use a lower value of weight,
then try to compensate by setting MENU:TX DLY Key Out to RF Out to
a high value. TX DLY is intended for use with external amplifiers, not
as a means of adjusting keyer timing.
SSB
<SSB BW>: Sets SSB transmit bandwidth. A narrower bandwidth will
reduce fidelity but reduce QRM to other stations in crowded
conditions. The default is 2.9 kHz. Note: When ESSB is on (see below),
the SSB BW button label changes to ESSB BW.
<ESSB>: Turns ESSB mode on/off (Extended Single Sideband) and
allows you to set the ESSB bandwidth. This value is independent of the
normal SSB bandwidth. The default is 4.0 kHz.
AM
<AM BW>: Sets the transmit bandwidth for AM mode.
FM
<RPT>: Selects simplex or +/- offset for repeater use.
<RPT OFS>: Used to specify a per-band offset for use with repeaters.
