[K3] Recent post about n1mm macros to send FSK without fancy hardware

[Nr4c]

There was a recent post on a reflector (don’t know which one) that listed n1mm function key macros for sending FSK using KY commands I think.  It didn’t seem to require any interface other than usual serial cable.  I am interested in this information.

If this will work with DX Labs as well, please include that info.

Thanks for your time.

In N1MM+, use the macro {CAT1ASC KY text;} to send "text". Spaces and ;
are significant - see the N1MM+ on-line documentation and the K3/KX3
Programmer's Manual.

You can insert N1MM substitution macros like #, * and ! as long as the
total length of the text to be sent stays below 24 characters. I believe
you can also insert control characters by enclosing the hex code in
angle brackets, e.g. <0D> for a CR character, etc.

I have never tried this next, but I believe you can do something similar
from DXLab Suite's WinWarbler by using the External Modem tab in the
Config window and setting the Model to Xcvr Ctrl App. Commander must be
running for this to work. There may be other configuration settings that
are needed along with this.

WinWarbler also has a radio control macro similar to the N1MM+ {CAT1ASC}
macro that could be used in function-key macros, namely <xcvrcommand:
'KY text;> (note the ' ) - but I don't know whether you can use this in
combination with other substitution macros, or whether you can embed
control characters in the text.

Hi Bill,  Well I just checked it out here and sure 'nuff, it works. On
page 36 of the K3s manual (page 34) of the K3 manual the setup is
described.  The K3 doesn't care if the excitation comes from the
computer via the KY command or from the paddles so have a ball my
friend. You can use the CW macros on RTTY.  I do not have n1mm but did
all of my testing with HRD's DM780 using the KY command.  RTTY without
an interface.... works for me!
