Hi,
With the KY command - how big is the buffer in the K2? I know that I can send up to 24 bytes per KY, can I send KY repeatedly to load up 100 characters? While sending the KY buffer how to I stop sending and clear the buffer? (Guess who's writing a new CW program?)

I wrestled with this when I wrote my K2 remote control program and as
far as I can remember, no you can't. You can send 24 characters and then you poll the K2 by sending "KY;" and test the reply back to find out the buffer state. I think it sends 3 values, to say whether it is empty, full, or able to accept another 6 characters. So you send 24, then keep topping it up 6 at a time until everything is sent. To stop sending and clear the buffer, if I understand my totally uncommented code written 3 years ago, you send "KY @;". -- Julian, G4ILO K2 s/n: 392 K3 s/n: ???
