Ok thanks Steve.  I have a menu file on the 480 in my BrailleNote
which I am using to write you.  Will check it out now to see what
it says about menu 002.  Thanks, Jim WA6EKS

Jim,

  The menu list in the manual is a bit terse, but if you get the
list
from  icanworkthisthing.com

there is a bit more description for each item.

I may have mentioned this to you before, but i know a number of
people
with the 590 (and I suppose the 480 as well)  who had trouble
getting
the recording function to work, did better  doing it via the ARCP
software.

 Jim, I'd be interested in the answer to your question as well.

 Which model of the 480 do you have?  I bought my 480SAT from a
 friend for
 $400 who had bought it a year or so ago, and other than hooking
 it up one
 time,  had never used it.  I bought it specifically for use on
 six meters
 only.  I drive my Commander legal limit amp, so the HX model
 wouldn't have
 done me any good.  I am quite pleased with the radio, though I
 have never
 tried it on HF, and under heavy QRM.  What is your opinion of
the
 rig?

 Does anyone know which menu number is auto mode on the TS-480?

 Hi Jim,

 That did the trick!  I guess I assumed that auto mode meant it
 would
 automatically switch mode depending on the frequency.  I'll have
 to
 read the manual section and find out exactly what auto mode does
 automatically.

 Thanks and 73,

 Dave, looks like you've turned on auto mode, menu 23.  It'll
 likely clear up
 if you turn that off.  It's discussed in the manual, page 51.

 Subject: TS-590 Default Mode

 When I first received my TS-590, I think it defaulted to CW mode
 when
 I entered a frequency in the CW portion of a band.  Now it seems
 to
 default SSB mode when I key in a frequency regardless of where I
 am
 going to in the band.  I've been through the menus and can't
seem
 to
 find a relevant setting.  Do any of you who have owned the
TS-590
 for
 a while have any idea what I might have changed?  I'm assuming
 something did change and it isn't just my failing memory!  I'm
 about
 98% CW, so it is a minor annoyance to have to change mode
 whenever I
 key in a CW frequency.

 73,

 Dave, W7OQ
