Kinda depended upon how many exchanges you had... if you wanted to prepare 
a 2nd exchange, you could default it to 599 while using the other exchange 
to pause for a hand-entered RST.

Over the years, I probably built 5 Accu-Keyers, 3 CMOS Accu-Keyers, and one 
Accu-Memory.  I believe that may have been the VERY FIRST keyer ever 
designed which offered automatic character spacing... a REAL boon to CW 
ops... it's successor was the KC Keyer and then the CMOS SUPER KEYER 
line... now sold by Idiom Press.
