[ct-user] How do send CW to an Orion?

[Vesselin Kotarov]

Wouldn't it be easier to use the builtin CT keyer? By doing that you are
always sure that the speed of you keyer and computer is the same. Also
the CT keyer supports Iambic A and B - very useful for Multi-Op
stations.

Just my $0.02 :)

Mal,
unlike YEASU FT1000MP, most radios have front jack for paddle and rear
jack
for keyer (or vise versa).
So if you use keying from your contest logger through interface you
don't
need a keyer and you don't need to turn your internal keyer ON every
time
you want to send something with your paddle.
Unfortunately with MP you have to switch it ON and OFF back and forth to
be
able to send from paddle, unless you use external keyer (like in your
case).

> I'm not sure I understand you comments about the FT100MP(mkv). I have
the
computer/CT plugged into the front panel jack and my keyer plugged into
the
rear jack for manual sending. What am I doing wrong,,,,,it works fine
here..??.. I don't want stuff working if it's not supposed to......
