As shipped from the factory, the FT-991 TX/RX system for CW is configured for "Semi-break-in" operation.
However, this setup may be changed to full break-in (QSK) operation using Menu item "057 CW BK-IN". With
full break-in QSK, the TX/RX switching is quick enough to hear incoming signals in the spaces between the dots
and dashes of your transmission.

Menu.

CW BK-IN".
3. Press the [ SELECT ] button, then rotate the
MULTI knob to set this Menu item to "FULL".
4. When your adjustments are complete, touch [ EN-
TER ] on the LCD to save the new setting.
5. Press the MENU(SETUP) button or touch
[ BACK ] on the LCD to exit to normal operation.
A number of interesting and useful features are available during Electronic Keyer operation.

Menu.
2. Rotate the MULTI knob to select Menu item "01
3 CW WEIGHT".
3. Press the [SELECT] button, then rotate the

ue. The available adjustment range is a Dot/Dash
