AMTOR Directives
While operating your KAM Plus in the AMTOR modes, several directives are available to perform
various functions without returning to the Command mode (cmd:) The directives and their pur-
poses are:
[Ctrl-C][A] Abort link

[Ctrl-C][I] Invert received MARK/SPACE signals and invert transmitted MARK/SPACE if
using AFSK (SSB)
[Ctrl-C][R] Return to receive mode immediately in FEC transmit. (If the transmit buffer
isn't empty, the remaining data will remain in the buffer.) Re-sync if monito-
ring. If linked, inserts +? (changeover) immediately. If the transmit buffer
isn't empty, the remaining data will remain in the buffer.
