Using the buttons as a paddle or straight key.

Double click the vfo button to enter button paddle mode. Upon entering this mode you will hear an "E", this indicates you are in button paddle mode. The menu button becomes the dit key and the tune down button becomes the dah key. (The latest 3b version uses the tunedown and tuneup buttons - so that you can use dfe while in straight key mode).

To exit this mode simply double click the vfo button again. You will hear an "R" confirming that you are now back in normal paddle mode.

While in button paddle mode, memories are available to play.

This mode will come in handy for those wishing to shave a few extra hundreths of ounces for the Spartan Sprints. Look ma, no key!
