Hi Tom,

To record a message, hold down keypad 1, 2, or 3 till it beeps.  Then 
send the message with your keyer and press the star key to end 
it.  It should be retained in memory even after you shut down the 
rig.  Unless there is some menu function that I haven't tripped over 
yet, that's all there is to it.

73 de W7OQ, Dave
