[TenTec] List of Pan-Adapter Features

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

The following list reflects the inputs I have received from group members:

Pan-Adapter Features:

.       Instantaneous snapshot of activity on an entire band.

.       Help find stations to work.

.       Help find weak stations.

.       Help find clear spots to call CQ

.       Waterfall history of recent activity on a given frequency.

.       Visual tuning reference.

.       Find SSB stations that are splattering.

.       Find CW stations with key clicks.

.       Signal evaluation (flat topping, bandwidth, etc.)

.       Noise identification and chasing.

.       Map Telnet spots (+ skimmer) onto the band scope.

 

Is this pretty much it, or are there more things one might do with a
Pan-Adapter?

 

I have a question (Gary?) on the last one.  When it maps the Telnet spots,
does it interface with the contest logging software and show you the
multipliers, show you which ones you have worked already, and automatically
enter the call sign into the log when you double click it?  (In other words,
can it do all the things the bandmap can do?)  If so, which contest logging
software does it run with?  N1MM?  Win-Test?  Other?
