HI All
I have just got a Flex 6500 and I am trying to get to grips with it, How can I key CW using MRP40 and the Flex,
failing that is there a CW macro option that I can program in some CW text to send ??
Thanks

Have you looked at the CWX feature in SmartSDR?1
-
Or, better yet, read the entire manual.0
-
The rig didn't come with a manual, only a quick set up guide,0
-
Just seen cwx, is there any option to add macros and not have to type all the time,0
-
Download the SmartSDR manual from http://www.flexradio.com/downloads/smartsdr-software-users-guide-pdf/ and read pp126-128. There are 12 function key macro messages.1

CWX is great. You can interlace the macros (F1-F12) with regular typing. So in live mode you can do something like:
tnx for qso k6abc
(the above typed manually in live sends as typed) Then hit say F12 which you have your call programmed:
de ws7m k
So your type sequence would be: tnx for qso k6abc <f12>
Macros in the function keys can be longer. I have the following programmed:
F1: ws7m (just my call for pouncing on a dx)
F2: tu 5nn bk (answer to a dx reply)
F6: cq cq cq de ws7m ws7m (I can hit f6 twice to repeat then type a k)
F7: name mark mark
F8: qth fort collins, co co
This post shows how to use some prosigns:

CWX works great. I wish it supported the popular >>>5nn<<< to increase speed of 5nn and reduce speed. Maybe a future version.
If you want to use an external program then:

MorseKeyer6K DOES support speed increase/decrease. It works very well.1
