Send Message
Sends a message when commanded.
Unlike the various Select Programmable Messages commands on page 4-35,
this command does not store the message in memory. It has two purposes:
• You can experiment with different messages types by entering this
command and listening for the results.
• You can place this command into a macro so that a message is sent when
the macro is executed.

Let's send some CW characters, some beep characters, then some CW
characters again. The CW characters will be A, B, and C; the beeps will be 25
through 30 at 80mS durations with 20mS gaps between them; and the final CW
characters will be 1, 2, and 30 WPM and 1000Hz frequency.
Looking up the CW Alphanumeric Characters Table beginning on page A-2, we
see that the control character is 9900; A, B, and C are 10 11 12 respectively.
Looking up the Beep Character Set Tablesbeginning on page A-5, we see that
the control character is 9910;
• To get 80mS beep durations, we must enter 75 (from the Beep Duration
Change Characters Table)
• To get 20mS gaps we must enter 56 to turn the automatic beep gaps ON
(from the Beep Parameters (General) Table), and 61 to get 20mS beep
gaps (from the Beep Gap Change Characters Table).
Going to the CW Frequency and Speed Changes Table on page A-4, we see
that the control character is 9900 again. To get 30 WPM we must enter:
