That's what I use. Some recommend a 3-4K resistor instead of the 1K - won't hurt, might help. 2N2222 is fine. I key CW with DTR on the COM port, thru resistor to base of 2n2222. Ground the emitter. E
Some rigs are difficult to key this way. For example, I and others have had trouble getting various optos to pull low enough to key the PTT line of the FT-1000MP. I've tried 4n25 and a couple of othe
OK, you guys have a bunch of pill bottles and film cans lying around the bench. I used a piece of RS circuit board to make 2 sets of switches for PTT/FSK, ie 4 transistors. I put it in a box with 4 s
The adapter cable should have come with a driver on disk or CD. If possible, go to the company's website and see if they have a driver you can download. It sure won't be on your Windows CD. If Window
Yes, the PACKET DIN is the best place for AFSK input. Some people have used the PATCH input because VOX is active for this, whereas it is not for the PACKET input. However, the PACKET input does hav
Quickest/easiest seems to be the menu in the radio. Opposite of what you have now should fix it. Other possibilities depend on your interface etc. Just find the FSK menu item and reverse it. Help! I'
Someone posted a little while ago that the module incorrectly marks dupes. I don't think that's correct. If there are at least 3 QSOs separating the same callsign, it shows as a new station (correctl

You have it correct, Larry - Mine behaves the same. If there are less than 3 intervening QSOs, the name of a previously-worked station auto-fills. If there are 3 or more intervening QSOs, then the na
No, I don't think so. I started a new log with 4 QSOs, with number 4 being the same call as number 1. The Q was a good, non-dupe QSO. Then I highlighted all 4 and deleted them. Then I started logging
This is a classic "problem" that's not really a problem. When you click the call to put the focus on the log window, the log window and entry area cover up your Rttyrite window. The windows that don'
Yes, but please don't use it. If the guy is calling you, you're probably not in his log, so you should just work him again. It will be marked as a dupe in your log, but that's OK. Also, this is usual
You need 2 CI-V interfaces. I use a CT-17 to interface one rig with PW1 and WL, and an inexpensive cable version from K1NU (http://home.att.net/~k1nu/k1nu/Products/control.html) to control the secon
At least you are aware of the "problem" - thanks for worrying about it. This is a very important concept to understand, and I will be writing more about it in the future for those new to AFSK RTTY an
