How ESM works? (Enter sends messages)

Unread post by DL2RUM »

I've tried to create few flowcharts. Maybe it is helpful. I added also the graphics as a pdf file.

I must have missed this in the instructions.

If I am in S&P mode using ESM everything goes fine unless the other station asks "NR?". By that time ESM has already logged the contact and the number has been incremented.

If I hit F6 again it will send the next number.

Is there a way to send the original number without going to Keyboard mode?

TIA

As far as I know someone reported this before. It seems to be my fault. Stay tuned ....
