I know I need to watch the video and read the manual, but I have a few quick questions.
When I transmit, is it normal to peg the Vara "VU" meter in red line? Is my audio or modulation level too high?
Also, can I send a return message at any time, or do I need to wait for the received message? Are the messages sequenced?
I'm just getting started, but am excited about this mode. Thanks for your help, K4HRK
Hi
Q: When I transmit, is it normal to peg the Vara "VU" meter in red line? Is my audio or modulation level too high?
A: Red line is not healthy. you will experience over modulation that will limit the decoding. Keep it within the green boundaries.
Q: Also, can I send a return message at any time, or do I need to wait for the received message? Are the messages sequenced?
A:You can send and receive message through the QSO. no need to wait and no BTU. type and hit enter anytime you want. You can watch the QUEUEs to see how your message is being going up the ladder until completely sent.
