[TenTec] Jupe+n4py+mixw2

[Charles Greene]

Jerome,

With MixW and the N4PY program,  in MixW go Configure-TRCVR CAT/PTT-TEN 
TEC-Pegasus \ Jupiter (emulation mode) and fill in the software path.   Now 
the MixW will import the frequency/andd/mode from MixW and control 
frequency/band/mode.  I use a hardware interface from MixW to the serial 
port DRT or RTS line to the PTT line in the Jupiter in the Accessory 
plug.  This line is the same as the CW key line. The N4PY has a CW 
keyboard, but I didn't try that while using MixW.
