CW
SLOW NEXT MESSAGE
Command Form:
(PW) 11 *
Description:
Entering this command before entering a command with a CW message
causes the CW message to be sent at the speed set by the Speed Select
(Slow) command. This command is most useful when placed into a macro
for users. CW speed returns to normal after the message buffer is empty.
Acknowledgement:
none
Errors:
none
Default Condition:
CW is sent at the Speed Select (Normal) rate.
Examples:
Assuming that macro 3 * sends the 12-hour time, and macro 2 * contains the
Slow Message command. A user could enter:
2 *
3 *
This will cause the time-of-day to be sent at the Speed Select (slow) rate.
Note: The repeater Courtesy Message is also a CW message. If a user
enters 2 * and then releases his PTT switch, the courtesy message will be
sent at the Speed Select (slow) rate. Since the speed then changes back to
normal, entering a 3 * will cause the time to be sent at the Speed Select
(normal) rate. Therefore, the user must enter the 2 * and 3 * in the same
transmission.
