Beautifully is the right word! But it makes no attempt to score the three contests, it just logs them very efficiently. And that's fine for me. If the N1MM guys want to add scoring per contest, that'
Point of order -- what is a "qrz message," and why would we want to automate it? "QRZ" at the end of a contest or pileup qso is a big time waster, because it doesn't tell prospective callers WHO you
I'll respond to that, because I want exactly the same thing. Thanks to old scoring rules, those of us living on the west coast of the US are uncompetitive in DX contests, so we don't take them seriou
Change that setting to OFF-DTR I can't help with the WriteLog side -- I switched to N1MM a long time ago. :) 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ WriteLog mailing list WriteLo
Yes. The K3 can be set to take CW and/or PTT from DTR and RTS lines of its RS232 connector. This works whether the computer connection is a real hardware port or a USB to RS232 port. The menu setting
That may be true, but my experience has been nearly 100% with hardware serial ports, either built into the computer itself, a port replicator, or a Quatech PCMCIA 2-port serial card, and that experie
Joe, That makes sense. I fully understand your analysis (in an early post) describing details of the operation of USB hubs. I've run into that with instrumentation that couples via USB. In a user gro
Wrong! It measures you station, your QTH (try being in the hunt for any CQ or ARRL DX contest from Zone 3 or from a city lot or a suburb with CC&Rs), and yes, your skills. Your station can be anythin
Yes. As I see it, using a masterdat or a prefill that is not generated from my logs is ASSISTANCE. When I'm running and a call doesn't show up on either screen, I'm going to make sure that I got it r
Yep. But except for my SteppIR, I designed and built them all. Did you finance your any of your stations equipment? Nope. Did some one bring you food or drink during the contest? Nope. Did you buy ca
Look carefully at Config in each program to verify that it is set for low tones and for the correct channel of the correct sound card. Also, look at the sound card mixer for Playback. N1MM, both Clas
I use 915 Hz because it's easier for my ear to tune it in. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ WriteLog mailing list WriteLog@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailm
These two sound cards are reported to work properly with Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 and provide the necessary mic/line switching: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829126101 On the reco

To correct the scoring, you need to modify the namedmult.ini file. With guidance from Wayne, I've done that and it works. The good news is that contest sponsors compute scores from the Cabrillo, not
For several years, I've been recommending Tascam and Numark USB sound cards designed for musicians and DJs for digital modes. Both are now discontinued, replaced by newer models, but the newer Tascam
WRONG! The need for isolation transformers is a total fallacy. No isolation transformers are needed with ANY radio if proper, simple chassis-to-chassis bonding of all interconnected equipment is done
He is correct that no splitters or isolation transformers are needed with a KIO3B. He is WRONG that they are needed WITHOUT a KIO3B. Study the link I posted. 73, Jim K9YC ____________________________
