Re: SO2R RTTY in MK2R+ and MMTTY (Jim
Well Jim,
quite the reverse here.
I was able to setup the whole thing several times, at very different
sites and setups year after year. A 756PROII and a 7600, two 7600, two K3.
Never had a glitch due to the MK2R+ itself.
Done two JARTS and two WAE, not that bad as I am quite unexperienced.
Each year I have had to redo the whole setup from scratch and manuals.
Operating time was around 40/42 hours each time.
I use it also single radio as the second one K3 is on a dummy load here
at home.
I find the manual quite complete and much more than explicative even if
the logger I'd used changed over time. BTW it is N1MM Logger.
This late year it will change much more.
Hope that the worst thing that I find there, use CTRL-B each time to
restart the dueling CQ could anyway solved by the last toy, a gamer
programmable key (G13). Much easier than anything other. CTRL-B is now a
simple click near the reprogrammed ESC key under the left hand.
I will buy only Microham product or I will continue, as it was before 3
years ago, with home made interfaces and simple serials. W7 of course.
... but it wouldn't too easy to move also a junky ATX or a clumsy
miniITX PC. Much more easy to move a 15" laptop and Mac Mini (Boot
Camping in W7) with a single USB interface. BTW I am just doing only
RTTY. Using MK2R+ with a single PC SO2R also leave out any interlock
issue. Driving the six pack and the two band filters boxes from its
parallel port is a breeze. A must with the Mac Mini SFF HW.

PS on the other side don't ask me by any mean to use again IC radio,
what a nightmare. Everybody have his personal and peculiar idiosyncrasies.
