Perform the following step to toggle between PSK31 and PSK63. Press F3 [31/63]. It is possible to toggle between BPSK31 and BPSK63 or between QPSK31 and QPSK63. The display to the right of the status bar toggles between > and > when the mode is switched. ● This is fixed at BPSK when the PSK63 mode is selected.
