These documentation source files are not the one true version, just a copy for testing purposes. DO NOT EDIT THESE FILES. To use this on Windows you will need a working asciidoc installation and the path to it must be included in your CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH (probably via a local CMake tool chain file). At the time of writing the official asciidoc package does not work on Windows. The latest development master does however work, it can be downloaded as a snapshot ZIP archive from here: https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc/archive/master.zip git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@5316 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79

Two arrangements of controls are provided for generating and selecting
|
|
Tx messages. Traditional controls carried over from program _WSJT_
|
|
appear on *Tab 1*, providing six fields for message entry.
|
|
Pre-formatted messages for the standard minimal QSO are generated when
|
|
you click *Generate Std Msgs* or double-click on an appropriate line
|
|
in one of the decoded text windows.
|
|
|
|
//.Traditional Message Menu
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Select the next message to be transmitted (at the start of your next
|
|
Tx sequence) by clicking on the circle under *Next*.
|
|
|
|
* To change to a specified Tx message immediately, click on a
|
|
rectangular button under the *Now* label. Changing a Tx message in
|
|
mid-stream will slightly reduce the chance of a correct decode, but it
|
|
is usually OK if done in the first 10-15 s of a transmission.
|
|
|
|
* All six Tx message fields are editable. You can modify an
|
|
automatically generated message or enter a desired message, keeping in
|
|
mind the strict limits on message content. See <<PROTOCOLS,Protocol
|
|
Specifications>> for details.
|
|
|
|
* Click on the pull-down arrow for message #5 to select one of the
|
|
pre-stored free-text messages entered on the *Settings | Tx Macros*
|
|
tab. Pressing *Enter* on a modified message #5 automatically adds
|
|
that message to the stored macros.
|
|
|
|
The second arrangement of controls for generating and selecting
|
|
Tx messages appears on *Tab 2* of the Message Control Panel:
|
|
|
|
//.New Message Menu
|
|

|
|
|
|
With this setup you normally follow a top-to-bottom sequence of
|
|
transmissions from the left column if you are calling CQ, or the right
|
|
column if answering a CQ.
|
|
|
|
* Clicking a button puts the appropriate message in the *Gen Msg* box.
|
|
If you are already transmitting, the Tx message is changed
|
|
immediately.
|
|
|
|
//* Both message fields are editable. You can enter and transmit
|
|
* You can enter and transmit
|
|
anything (up to 13 characters) in the *Free Msg* box.
|
|
|
|
* Click on the pull-down arrow in the *Free Msg* box to select a
|
|
pre-stored macro. Pressing *Enter* on a modified message here
|
|
automatically adds that message to the table of stored macros.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: During a transmission the actual message being sent always
|
|
appears highlighted in yellow in the first box of the status bar
|
|
(bottom left of the main screen).
