CW Character Send
Version 1.367 of the Orion firmware added a new CW Send feature. This allows the Orion to transmit CW codes based on ASCII characters. In addition to the standard alphabet the ORion can transmit special procedural symbols as indicated in the table below. This command has no associated query command.
CW is transmitted using the Orion’s current CW settings. The Internal Keyer must be enabled, otherwise the Send CW command is ignored.

Note that the lack of a way to check if the radio is transmitting could cause issues with this CWBYCAT and AUTOCQ as we need to know when the rig is done sending. ##Xmit

Setting:
*RMR<val><cr> for main receiver RIT. *RSR<val><cr> for sub receiver RIT. *RMX<val><cr> for main XIT.
<val> range +/- 8000 Hz.
Sub receiver does not contain an XIT setting.
example: *RMX500<cr>
Sets main XIT to +500 Hz. *RSR0<cr>
Sets sub receiver RIT to 0.
Query:
?RMR<cr> for main receiver RIT. ?RMX<cr> for main XIT. ?RSR<cr> for sub receiver RIT.
sample responses: @RMR200<cr>
Indicates main receiver RIT set to 200 Hz.
@RSR1000<cr>
Indicates sub receiver RIT set to 1000 Hz.
