Two arrangements of controls are provided for generating and selecting
 | 
						|
Tx messages.  Controls familiar to users of program _WSJT_
 | 
						|
appear on *Tab 1*, providing six fields for message entry.
 | 
						|
Pre-formatted messages for the standard minimal QSO are generated when
 | 
						|
you click *Generate Std Msgs* or double-click on an appropriate line
 | 
						|
in one of the decoded text windows.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
//.Traditional Message Menu

						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Select the next message to be transmitted (at the start of your next
 | 
						|
Tx sequence) by clicking on the circle under *Next*.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* To change to a specified Tx message immediately during a
 | 
						|
transmission, click on a rectangular button under the *Now* label.
 | 
						|
Changing a Tx message in mid-stream will slightly reduce the chance of
 | 
						|
a correct decode, but it is usually OK if done in the first 10-15 s of
 | 
						|
a transmission.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* All six Tx message fields are editable.  You can modify an
 | 
						|
automatically generated message or enter a desired message, keeping in
 | 
						|
mind the limits on message content.  See <<PROTOCOLS,Protocol
 | 
						|
Specifications>> for details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Click on the pull-down arrow for message #5 to select one of the
 | 
						|
pre-stored messages entered on the *Settings | Tx Macros* tab.
 | 
						|
Pressing *Enter* on a modified message #5 automatically adds that
 | 
						|
message to the stored macros.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The second arrangement of controls for generating and selecting
 | 
						|
Tx messages appears on *Tab 2* of the Message Control Panel:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
//.New Message Menu
 | 
						|
image::new-msg-box.png[align="center",alt="New Message Menu"]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
With this setup you normally follow a top-to-bottom sequence of
 | 
						|
transmissions from the left column if you are calling CQ, or the right
 | 
						|
column if answering a CQ.  
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Clicking a button puts the appropriate message in the *Gen Msg* box.
 | 
						|
If you are already transmitting, the Tx message is changed
 | 
						|
immediately.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* You can enter and transmit anything (up to 13 characters, including
 | 
						|
spaces) in the *Free Msg* box.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* Click on the pull-down arrow in the *Free Msg* box to select a
 | 
						|
pre-stored macro.  Pressing *Enter* on a modified message here
 | 
						|
automatically adds that message to the table of stored macros.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
IMPORTANT: During a transmission the actual message being sent always
 | 
						|
appears in the first box of the status bar (bottom left of the main
 | 
						|
screen).
