CWX Panel

The CWX (CW Transmit) panel provides keyboard-to-CW keying for sending Morse code directly from AetherSDR.

Opening CWX

Click the CWX indicator in the status bar at the bottom of the screen. The CWX panel appears as a 250px sidebar to the left of the panadapter.

Mode restriction: CWX is only available when the active slice is in CW or CWL mode. The indicator is greyed out and non-clickable in other modes. Switching away from CW mode auto-closes the panel.

Mutual exclusion: CWX and DVK panels cannot be open simultaneously — opening one closes the other.

Features

  • Keyboard text entry for CW transmission
  • CW macros and memory keyer
  • Speed (WPM) control
  • Real-time CW keying via the radio's built-in keyer

Status Bar Indicator

The CWX label in the status bar has three visual states:

  • Bright cyan — panel is open
  • Dim white — available (CW/CWL mode), click to open
  • Dark grey — unavailable (not in CW mode)
