Editing Push-to-type operation

{{short description|Telegraphy}}

'''Push-to-type operation''':  In telegraph or [[data transmission]] systems, that method of communication in which the operator at a station must keep a [[switch]] operated in order to send messages. 

Push-to-type operation is used in [[radio]] systems where the same [[frequency]] is employed for transmission and reception.  

Push-to-type operation is a derivative form of transmission and may be used in simplex, half-duplex, or [[Duplex (telecommunications)|duplex operation]]. ''Synonym'' '''press-to-type operation.'''

This is similar to [[Push-to-talk operation]] for radio phone communications.
