WIdeshft ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: All Host: WI
________________________________________________________________________________
The WIDESHIFT command allows backwards compatibility with hostmode software
designed for use with the PK-232. This command coupled with the QWIDE
command selects a modem for wide shift operation such as 850 Hz shift used
on some VHF data repeaters. Some MARS stations use 850 RTTY on HF. Wide
shift must not be used on AMTOR.

WOrdout ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: Baudot, ASCII, AMTOR, PACTOR and Morse Host: WO
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - Typed characters are held in the transmit buffer until a space, CR,
LF, TAB, RECEIVE, CWID, ENQ or +? character(s) is typed.
OFF - Typed characters are sent directly to the transmitter.
________________________________________________________________________________
Use the WORDOUT Command to choose whether or not you can edit while entering
text for transmission.
When WORDOUT is ON, each character you type is held in a buffer until you type a
space, a carriage return, a line feed, ENQ character ($05, <CTRL-E>) or the +?.
You can edit words before the transmit buffer's contents are sent to the radio.
When WORDOUT is OFF, each character you type is sent to the radio just as you
typed it, without any delay.

WRu ON|OFF Default: OFF
Mode: Baudot, ASCII Host: WR
_________________________________ Parameters: __________________________________
ON - Your Auto-AnswerBack is sent after a distant station's WRU?
OFF - Your Auto-AnswerBack is NOT sent after a distant station's WRU?
________________________________________________________________________________
Use the WRU command in Baudot and ASCII to enable or disable your PK-900's
Automatic-AnswerBack feature.
When WRU is ON, your PK-900 sends the AnswerBack on receipt of a distant
station's WRU? request ("FIGS-D" or "$" in Baudot or a <CTRL-E> in ASCII).
Your PK-900 keys your transmitter, sends the text stored in the AnswerBack
field (AAB), then unkeys your transmitter and returns to receive.
The WRU function is defaulted ON in AMTOR as per the CCIR recommendation.
It is also defaulted on in PACTOR. To allow for special applications where it
may be helpful to disable the WRU function in AMTOR or PACTOR, User Bit 9
(UBIT 9) command controls this feature.
