Hi Wayne I am preparing a laptop to take on the road so I can operate WL from my camper on an extended trip. After I install the "full" WL version I got when I paid my upgrade fee, do I have to insta
I inadvertently called him Saturday, assuming he was in the contest like everybody else. He then told me he was a DX expedition and not in the contest, so I thanked him and left without completing a
I run Win98se exclusively on the ham computers here and have NO problems, "as expected". Every time so far that I have experienced weirdnesses, it had something to do with some weirdness-prone progra
All the receiving station needs is to see the same number at least twice on his screen. Do this by sending it at least 3 times unless conditions are very good. It REALLY helps if you use a 3 digit nu
FWIW, there are at least 3 different programs that are reported to enable the port under XP. I have no idea how well any of them work, but it might be useful to try the others. Jerry W4UK
If you are manually using a Yaesu amp with a non-Yaesu transceiver, see http://www.qsl.net/ab4oj/quadra/w4uk.html on how to automate it using Writelog's Antenna Relay control signals. Some other gene
If you run two computers you can set both to repeat at same interval, then stagger them. Works for many cycles. Using two computers has several advantages. I have mine set up to have CT compatibility
These new radios with combined RFGain + Squelch on _one_ knob can be tricky ;o) (Hint - rotation past half point changes to squelch mode on current popular ICOMs) Jerry W4UK
I am not so sure it is the decoding ability of MMTTY that people prefer. Is there really a difference in decode performance? I use MMTTY instead of Wayne's Rttyrite unit only because of the MMTTY dis
Hi Toby On the features page at: http://www.writelog.com/features.htm requirements mention a 100 MHz Pentium, 16MB RAM, and Windows 95. But anything supporting Windows95 will probably work in a limit
I routinely use two soundcards under WIN98se to simultaneously decode the MMTTY plug-in (for WL) on one soundcard and a stand-alone copy of MMTTY (as a backup monitor) on the other. No reason your co
An aside: Got a call from my grandson the other day. He is in the US Coast Guard and is attending their communications school out in California. He told me in their HF class they are training on ASR3
I don't have any monitor recommendations, but if you just want to reduce the noise, do this test: Cap and shield the receiver's antenna connection and see if the noise goes away (connecting to a shie
Before you go that route, consider using two networked computers. The second one can be an old clunker and might even cost less than a SO2R controller. I have used two computers for RTTY contesting.
I have the same setup, but when things slow down I will CQ on both, "interleaving" them. This is how WL works in this situation at the present time. You must always delay entering the second call unt
I use only one set of keyboard macros (RTTY memory setup) for both CQ and S&P, so I don't have to remember which mode I am in except for the final log keystroke. And since PED CW practice uses the sa
But if the rules clearly state that I should give out consecutive serial numbers, and I violate this by giving two guys the same one, you would think I have committed a "bad", right? Why in the world
