Two arrangements of controls are provided for generating and selecting
|
|
Tx messages. Controls familiar to users of 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
|
|
image::traditional-msg-box.png[align="center",alt="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 during a
|
|
transmission, 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 10-20% 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 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 messages entered on the *Settings | Tx Macros* tab.
|
|
Pressing *Enter* on a modified message #5 automatically adds that
|
|
message to the stored macros.
|
|
|
|
* In some circumstances it may be desirable to make your QSOs as
|
|
shiort as possible. To configure the program to start contacts with
|
|
message #2, disable message #1 by double-clicking on its round
|
|
radio-button or rectangular *Tx 1* button. Similarly, to send RR73
|
|
rather than RRR for message #4, double-click on one of its buttons.
|
|
|
|
The second arrangement of controls for generating and selecting
|
|
Tx messages appears on *Tab 2* of the Message Control Panel:
|
|
|
|
//.New Message Menu
|
|
image::new-msg-box.png[align="center",alt="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.
|
|
|
|
* You can enter and transmit anything (up to 13 characters, including
|
|
spaces) 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.
|
|
|
|
TIP: During a transmission the actual message being sent always
|
|
appears in the first box of the status bar (bottom left of the main
|
|
screen).
