Normally
I'd
use
the
buttons
here
on
the
board.
You
can
see
them
here,
just
above
the
display
or
I
can
plug
in
a
PS2
keyboard
and
use
that
which
is
more
convenient,
especially
for
filming
so
I'm
going
to
use
the
keyboard
from
now
on,
I'm
going
to
cursor
over
to
the
frequency
digits
that
I
want
to
change
and
use
up
and
down
arrows
to
change
them.
I'm
going
to
go
to
our
frequency
in
the
10
meter
band.
A
Put
my
call
sign
in
there
for
good
measure.
In
case
it
leaks
out
of
my
dummy
load
and
I'll
hit
enter
having
hit
enter
I'll
return.
There
is
a
little
menu
of
different
things
that
it
can
mean.
I
can
clear
the
transmit
buffer
I
can
just
quit
out
of
this
menu,
I
can
go
ahead
and
transmit
or
I
can
return
to
editing.
A
A
A
You
can
see
that
it
transmits
what
I
said
to
transmit
and
the
cursor
follows
along.
So
you
can
see
where
it
is
in.
The
transmission
Spectrum
you
can
see
is
not
completely
perfect.
It's
got
a
nice
big
peak
right
on
frequency,
but
there
are
some
other
lumps
you
know.
Maybe
some
room
for
improvement
there.
A
A
Here's
a
brand
new
Mode
called
Scamp.
Now
we
can
do
FSK
or
on
off
keying,
depending
on
what
you
want.
This
is
FSK
mode
and
with
the
default
settings.
So
let's
listen
to
that
set
the
mode
back
to
transmit
mode,
same
old
message,
and
here
we
go
now
you'll
notice.
It's
way
down
at
the
bottom,
so
I'm
going
to
tune
up
so
I
can
hear
it.

A
We
can
choose
any
frequency
anywhere
in
HF
band
down
to
one
Hertz
resolution
using
a
synthesizer
optionally.
We
can
use
a
crystal
and
choose
one
frequency,
but
the
synthesizer
is
relatively
inexpensive
and
much
more
convenient
and
the
Scamp
mode
with
its
FEC
capabilities,
should
be
quite
robust
compared
to
simple
CW
or
rtty.
