If you subsequently decide to use the "Message Memo-
ry" technique for memory storage, please note that the
contents of a message stored using text input will not be
transferred over when you set entry to "Message Memo-
ry technique" on a particular memory register (the Menu
Mode Setting is set to "MESSAGE").
Decrementing the Contest Number
Use this process if the current contest number
gets slightly ahead of the actual number you
want to send (in case of a duplicate QSO, for ex-
ample).
Press the FH-2 [ DEC ] key momentarily. The
current Contest Number will be reduced by one.
Press of the FH-2 [ DEC ] key as many times as
necessary to reach the desired number. If you go
too far, use the "Contest Number Programming"
technique described previously.
Transmitting in the Beacon Mode
In "Beacon" mode, it is possible to repeatedly
transmit any message programmed, either via
paddle input, or via the "Text" input method. The
time delay between message repeats may be set
anywhere between 1 and 690 seconds (1 ~ 240
sec (1 sec/step) or 270 ~ 690 sec (30 sec/step))
via Menu item "014 BEACON TIME" If you do
not wish the message to repeat in a "Beacon"
mode, please set this Menu item to "OFF".
To transmit the message:
1. Touch [ BK-IN ] on the LCD to enable trans-
mission. Either Full-break-in or Semi-break-
in will be engaged, depending on the setting
of Menu item "057 CW
2. Press an FH-2 [ 1 ] ~ [ 5 ] key. Repetitive trans-
mission of the Beacon message will begin.
