Press ESC to go to the menu screen. Select "Change Scroll Speed". While in the menu where you can change the scroll speed, type an excalamation point "!". Sometime you have to hold it a half second to get it to register. (Shift+1). If the "N" changed to "Y" on Keyboard, then you have unlocked the keyboard and can start typing ads!

I recommend that you look at the reverse engineering page on the EPG Jr to input a settings block, and there is also a link to a command generator that allows you to set the date/time, a sample settings block, end data stream and send pre-typed ads (though I'd say you are better off typing them in the emulator itself... it overwrites memory sometimes and makes things get funky). Are you using Atari800?
