Messages Variables
These variables can be used in programming CW messages using the F-keys. Some of these variables do not actually create output but rather perform actions at specific points in time, like the $CR symbol.
CW automation
- $MYCALL: sends callsign set in contest configuration
- $SERIAL: sends QSO #
- $ZONE: sends zone nr set in contest configuration
- $LOGGEDCALL: send what's typed in callsign field
- $CORRECT: send a call correction, if any
- $INSERT and $PLUS: send messages in [INS] or [+] key
- ++: increase speed by 2 wpm
- --: decrease speed by 2 wpm
- ^: the halfspace character with 1/2 dot duration
- $QSOB4: send QSOB4 message
- $F1...$F6: send the message associated with F1 ... F6 function key
- $MSG1...$MSG12: additional CW messages (see Alt-C)
Action
- $GUESSEXCH (or $GUESSEXCHANGE): mimics a space bar hit (filling exchange field(s)
- $GUESSZONE: filling exchange field(s) if possible, but cursor remains in the same edit field.
- $CR: works like hitting [Enter] (log QSO)
- $SPACEBAR: works like hitting spacebar-key (move cursor to exchange field)
- $TAB: works like hitting [Tab] (move cursor to next field)
- $REPEAT: reset the automatic repeat mode interval
- $GRABSPOT grabs spot on the current frequency
SO2R
- $ALTERNATECQ (or $ACQ): swaps primary and secondary radios and send CQ on the secondary radio
- $CQ: same as $ALTERNATECQ but does not swap radios
- $R1R1: set audio of Radio 1 to left and right ear
- $R1R2: set audio of Radio 1 to left and audio of radio 2 to right ear
- $R2R1: set audio of Radio 1 to left and audio of radio 1 to right ear
- $R2R2: set audio of Radio 2 to left and right ear
- $RESET: cancels any manual change made in the audio control
- $TR1: transmit on Radio 1
- $TR2: transmit on Radio 2
- $LATCH: sets latch mode
- $GRNR: sends group number of the received QTC
