The supplied FH-2 Remote Control Keypad may be used as a control keypad for the automatic sending of CW messages
(as you might do in a contest).
Two techniques for message storage are available: you may either send the desired message contents using your keyer
paddle ("Message Memory"), or you may input the text characters using the LCD display ("Text Memory").
See page 15 for details regarding interconnection of the FH-2.

ERMINOLOGY
PARIS Word Length:By convention in the Ama-
teur industry (utilized by ARRL and others), the
length of one "word" of CW is defined as the length
of the Morse Code characters spelling the word
"PARIS." This character (dot/dash/space) length
is used for the rigorous definition of code speed in
"words per minute."
