I have been playing with 2Tone this afternoon also and have it working under n1mm. Reading of your success below in standalone mode, I installed another copy into a different folder and tried to run it standalone, but no go. When I try, Windows XP tells me: 2Tone... has encountered a problem... and then closes. This is for version 2Tone version13.02, Windows XP and a 32 bit machine.

Can you give us more details of how you got it work standalone?

BTW, 5x8c called me when I was running in the WPX last weekend. Sweet! Hope they use LOTW.

Hi all,

I am curious about 2-Tone, as I was led to believe that it won't run as a
standalone program, and will ONLY work with N1MM, although I have since
found out that it runs under something else too now.

During my searches for this software, I found a ZIP file of the EXE, INI and
a PDF describing how it runs under N1MM.
Out of curiosity, I unzipped the program into a new folder, and hey presto,
it actually works.
Interestingly, it has the option to choose left, right, or mono, so I am
able to choose whether it decodes the main VFO, or the sub VFO by using L or
R.

I tried it tonight, listening to the pile-up for 5X8C, and found it to be
only as good as MMTTY, not better, although that wasn't really a discerning
test.
I see you can also choose between normal decoding, and selective fading
decoding, and a quick test proved that MMTTY was better in this test.

Like Don AA5AU, I may well try it in the BARTG HF contest next month, just
as a separate window, and to gauge how well it performs under contest
conditions.
