K2 & hamlib

[Mike Markowski]

Now that I have a KPA100 on order which happens to include an rs232
port, I wonder if any linux users on the list have tried hamlib
(http://hamlib.org) with the K2.  I just noticed it offers a K2 option.
 Does it work well or are the hamlib-supported features limited?  When I
use (non-CW) digital modes I enjoy the hamlib/gmfsk/xlog trio and would
love to find that the K2 is already fully supported, though I'm
definitely willing to contribute software to hamlib if it's not.

Thanks,
Mike  AB3AP

I do not (yet) own a K2, but I'm a rather happy camper as far as hamlib
and friends are concerned.

My recollections of the mailing-list are that it should work fine, but
you're welcome to ask the same question in the other list as well.

I suppose your contributions would be welcome anyway ;-)


B73,
Andrea.

Mike,
Filter settings don't work, but Brian Mury has taken on the maintenance
of the K2 module (see the hamlib list) and hopes to fix it.
Try gMFSK 0.7.1pre1 which includes Olivia from Pawel and also a
bandpass-center button (which I wrote and Tomi Manninen incorporated,
once he made it work, hi hi).

I'm a little late replying to this, but I have an excuse... ;-)

A couple months ago I moved from British Columbia to Nova Scotia (that's
about 4500 km in a straight line, around 6200 km by road). I then had to
wait 3 weeks for the military to ship my stuff (including my computer)
across the country. It arrived the day before I went to sea for a month.
Just got back a week ago, and got my internet connection hooked up
yesterday. I'm catching up on the last couple months of email.

For the same reason, I have not done any work at all on hamlib. Work
will continue to keep me very busy for the next 3 weeks. After that I
should be working mostly 8-4, at least until the end of August. I hope
to make some progress during the summer.

BTW, I am the official maintainer for the K2 module, but anyone is free
to contribute to the code. The more the merrier!

Anyway, I just thought those who are interested might like to know where
things are at.
