Hi Gang,
After WPX this weekend, I've come to the conclusion that being I can't fix all
my antenna issues (too small a lot), I have to play with my antenna tuner
As contesters, I figure you guys are probably the people who would know if this
would work...
I'm looking at the Palstar AT-auto, but there is an issue - it wants to hook
directly to the MKV field, but there goes hooking the rig to the Microkeyer OR
the Computer.
The manual for the AT-auto says you CAN use a Y cable BUT
"Note! Some radios do NOT provide data headers in their serial data strings
which causes
erratic frequency following whenever non-frequency serial data is sent by the
HF transceiver.
The Yaesu FT-990 and FT-1000 are known to cause erratic frequency following by
the ATAUTO
when using a “Y” serial data cable. Users report success with the FT-2000 and
Kenwood radios.
"
Now, of course WE Know there is a huge difference between the FT-1000 and a
FT-1000MkV (field or not)
Has anyone on the list gotten this combo to work?

pursuing invariably the same Object evinces
a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism,
it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government,
and to provide new Guards for their future security."
