Here is my CW checklist for the TS-480:
CW Checklist
------------------------------
on the radio RRC:
- under keyer settings, set PTT activated by keyer to YES
- under I/O settings, change OUT2 mode to KEYER
on the control RRC:
- under keyer settings, set enable to YES
- change other keyer settings as desired
- under I/O settings, set IN0 mode to KEYER
Make sure that the cable is connected between the radio RRC and rig's key (NOT paddle) jack. If possible,
use a mono plug on the rig side, since stereo can cause problems under certain situations (e.g. FSK).
