TEXT Memory

The five channels of CW message memory (up to 50 characters each) may also be programmed using a text-entry tech-
nique. This technique is somewhat slower than sending the message directly from your keyer paddle, but accuracy of
character spacing is ensured.
Example 1: CQ CQ CQ DE W6DXC K (20 characters)
The sequential Contest Number ("Countup") feature is another powerful feature of the CW Memory Keyer,.
Example 2: 599 10 200 # K (15 characters)
