Hello everybody.
I connected a cw straight key by an RJ45 to the controller box. I did all the seetings as in the manual, now the situation is:
I switch in a cw mode  in the radio, i can hear my cw tones without the possibility to low their volume and the radio DO NOT TX when I digit.
Do i miss some other cable link in the remote rig radio box I have on my qth site?

Thanks, Antonio.
