[Elecraft] RTTY Hang time

Bill,

If you are using the CW memory keys M1-M4 to send RTTY, add a "pipe" 
character ( I ) at the end of the message.  The K3 will ignore the 
"pipe" character in CW mode, but will end the transmission immediately 
when it encounters it in RTTY (FSK D) mode.  The "pipe" character is the 
upper case character on the same key as the backslash character.  You 
can use the "Edit CW Memories..." function in the K3 Utility to add this 
character to your messages.

73,

Bill - NA5DX
