details)
NOTE: If the CWPTT command is OFF, the KAM Plus front panel will not indicate that you have en-
tered the transmit mode, or that you have returned to receive. If it is ON, the bargraph will go
dark and the HF transmit LED will light when you are transmitting.
Receiving CW
During reception, you may find that the station from which you are receiving is sending at a much
slower rate than you are set to transmit. You can lock your transmit speed to the speed of the re-
ceived station with the [Ctrl-C][L] directive. This sets your transmit speed approximately equal to
the speed of the station from which you are receiving. You should then send the [Ctrl-C][U] direc-
tive from the keyboard to unlock the KAM Plus, allowing it to again track the speed of the other
station.
To exit the CW mode and return to the Command mode type [Ctrl-C][X].
CW Directives
While your KAM Plus is in the CW mode, several directives are activated and function as described.
[Ctrl-C][E] Return to receive mode when transmit buffer is empty
[Ctrl-C][L] Lock transmit and receive speed to current receive speed
[Ctrl-C][R] Return to receive mode immediately (If the transmit buffer isn't empty the remain-
ing data will stay in the buffer)
[Ctrl-C][T] Enter transmit mode
[Ctrl-C][U] Unlock receive speed to allow tracking of incoming signal. Transmit speed stays at
current setting
[Ctrl-C][X] Exit CW mode and return to Command mode (PACKET)
