Playing Memory 2:

BE - Beacon Mode:
Beacon mode will send the contents of mem 1 continuously. Start the beacon by pressing the dit switch
- the beacon starts to play. Exit beacon mode by tapping the dit or dah switch.
O? - Record Memory 3:
The memory is recorded by sending normally. Note that the keyer output is off during the recording and
that the lower command sidetone is used. When complete, PAR the mem switch. The routine will be
exited automatically after the 40th character is sent. The memory is saved in flash memory which
means that it will still be there even if power is removed. If this menu item is entered by mistake, PAR
the mem switch to exit without changing the memory.
Playing Memory 3:
Play memory 3 with a PAR of the memory switch. - the memory starts to play after the mem switch is
released. A tap of either the dit or dah switch will stop the message play.
BA - Beacon Alternate between mem 1 and mem 2 mode:
This routine selects/deselects alternating the beacon play between memory 1 and memory 2.
ST - SideTone on/off:
Since most rigs have a built-in sidetone, it is handy to be able to silence the NorCal Keyer sidetone,
especially when the tone is injected into the rig audio. Note that the sidetone will still be engaged
during any menu or recording entry even if it has been turned off.
