Note2: The OMNI-VII handles ascii for upper and lower case characters, and
converts them to the standard dit/dah pattern for that character (e.g. A and a both equal
dit dah) So it is not necessary to convert key codes into either upper or lower case making
keyboard entry possible.

'*' 'C2K' <count> CHAR <CR>
'*' = the ASCII '*' symbol (0x2a)
C2K = the ASCII 'C2K' characters (<0x43><0x32><0x4B>)
<count> = binary unique incremental counter for each digit sent
starting = 0, ending = 0xff.
Used by radio to know this is a new character.
Allows you to send the same character multiple times
to help ensure that the radio gets it
Each change in the count means that it is a new character.
CHAR = Ascii Code for the character (0x00 to 0x7f)
*C2K<0x10>M<CR> tells the OMNI-VII to TX CW Character M
*C2K<0x10>M<CR> tells the OMNI-VII to TX CW Character M
Since we just got two of the same count, only one M will get
transmitted.
*C2K<0x11>L<CR> tells the OMNI-VII to TX CW Character L
*C2K<0x12>" "<CR> tells the OMNI-VII to TX a word space
Both will get carried out, since the count is different.
Only thing the OMNI-VII looks for is that the count is different, if
so, then it will transmit out all characters.
The OMNI-VII does have a cache it will hold characters in, and
the amount of characters left is able to be read via the ?C2K
command. It will return a value <d0> which is the count of how
many slots are open.
?C2K <CR> query from PC to OMNI-VII
C2K<0x10> <CR> OMNI-VII states there are 16 slots available in
the CWType ahead buffer.
