"Contester's Spectral Display" feature of N1MM software will be supported soon

Hi all,

You may have heard that the popular N1MM program now has a “contester’s spectral display” window. Very soon, we anticipate a new release of N1MM that provides support for this feature when used with the K3, K3S, and KX3. (The Win4k3 software package was just modified to provide the spectral data that N1MM needs. Thanks to Tom, VA2FSQ, for fast-tracking this addition.)

I’ve already seen the demo, which is quite impressive. When the release is finalized, we’ll do another announcement with full details.

73,
Wayne

This is great news.  I knew Tom was working something out Wayne, but it's
nice to see the confirmation here.  It's been nice to see Win4K3Suite
progress on the feature set.  This will be icing on the cake with the new
N1MM+ spectrum display along with all the other features of Win4K3Suite.
K3/s settings software control / CAT sharing etc...

In reply to this post by wayne burdick
No, you don't have to purchase Win4k3, but with a K3 or KX2 you will need
some additional hardware.

I have been using the N1MM+ spectrum display for several weeks with my K3.
The software interface I use is N2IC's Waterfall Bandmap program (<
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/waterfallbandmap/info>).

You do need external hardware with a K3 or K3S, regardless of which
software you use. I have used Waterfall Bandmap and the N1MM+ spectrum
display with three different hardware configurations: an SDR (SDRPlay RSP1
or RSP2) fed from the K3's RX ant in/out connections; the same SDR fed from
the K3's IF Out; and an LP-PAN plus dedicated sound card, fed from the K3's
IF Out. All of these require the KXV3 to be installed in the K3 (it's
already built in to the K3S).

My understanding is that Win4k3 supports the same configurations and adds
the P3/P3SVGA to the list of hardware it supports. Waterfall Bandmap does
not support the P3/P3SVGA.

Win4k3 also supports the KX3 without external hardware other than a sound
card, and the KX2 or KX3 with an SDRPlay plus an external transmit/receive
switch. I believe Waterfall Bandmap should support these two configurations
as well, but I don't know whether either of them has been tested.

Win4k3 also has many other features, and it may well be worth the purchase
price to you for those features alone - but it is not mandatory in order to
use the spectrum display in N1MM+.

In reply to this post by wayne burdick
If you are looking for a simpler, no-cost option for using the N1MM+
spectrum display with a K3 or K3S, Waterfall Bandmap provides that
capability, using LP-PAN, SDRPlay, or other SDR receivers that support
an ExtIO DLL.

Waterfall Bandmap provides a standalone waterfall display, as well as
forwarding spectrum information to N1MM+ for display by the N1MM+
spectrum display.

See:

Re: "Contester's Spectral Display" feature of N1MM software will be supported soon

Barry K3NDM
Steve,
     I'm not sure going with what you suggest allows for maximum utility.
I run SDRplay to drive the main spectrum display with win4k3 and my
sound card for the N1MM+. By doing this, I can click on signals from
either display and have my radio move to it. I also run CW Skimmer off
my sound card and I want to be able put my radio on a signal from that
display. This all requires port replication and multiple data streams
to/from the radio. There are good port replicators out there; I use
com0com. But, there needs to be a way to tie it all together. You have
two choices from what I have seen, LP Bridge which is a little quirky,
or win4K3 which seems to run very smoothly. This sets you up for full
bore station integration with likes of HRD and anything else you pick to
add to the mix. I think Tom has said that he is adding more ports to
win4k3 meaning that ultimately anything that can work with a KX3,K3, K3s
can be added to the mix. The downside to all of this is not have a large
enough monitor or room for multiple large monitors. :-(

73,
Barry

IMHO.... If you own a K3(s)/KX3/KX2 et al. and you want to do rig
control, then you SHOULD purchase Win4K3Suite...

No one HAS to...  I did; couldn't be happier.  Of course I also own HRD
and others...  I will now likely buy N1MM, too!

Cool... then if I like it, I'll have to find a way to contribute to the
