CW Skimmer

[w4giw]

I use TRX manager  with the K3 and it provides many add on features. It is the only thing connected to the RS232 port of the K3 but TRX Manager controls many other things like the linear, rotor, telnet, ETC. I want to also use CW skimmer in this arrangement but TRX manager only has the ability to work with Skimmer through telnet which does not give Skimmer control of the K3. Anyone using a virtual connection program that will handle TRX manager and CW Skimmer at the same time without problems. Bridge will mostly work but some commands  for the K3 through TRX manager dont work. I dont know if skimmer will work through Bridge but I believe it will.  Thanks for any help. Van W4GIW

Try using TRX-Synchro, along with a virtual pair from Eterlogic VSPE. For instance...

Set TRX1 as K3 on real COM1
Create a virtual pair as COM2 <> COM3
Set TRX2 as K3 on COM2
Set CW Skimmer for K3 on COM3
Turn on TRX-Synchro

Any change on the K3 will control TRX-Manager and CW Skimmer. Any change in TRX will control the K3 and CW Skimmer. Any change is CW Skimmer will control the K3 and TRX.
