KDVR3 with N1MM

Jeff Kinzli N6GQ
Hi there, I'm wondering if I could find someone that's currently using
the KDVR3 with N1MM - I have a few questions I'd like to bounce off
you, and it can be off-list, or on-list. Specifically, how seamless is
the integration with N1MM and what are the known issues (if any)?

Thanks,

Jeff N6GQ

I've done it. It's not really integrated in any way (at least that I
know of), but you can trigger playback of DVR messages with CAT
commands in your SSB messages. I was surprised recently when I
discovered that hitting Escape actually caused DVR playback to stop
immediately ... perhaps N1MM sends an "RX" command to the K3 on
Escape-press??

The main downside, I suppose, is that N1MM has no knowledge of the
length of the messages (or even that there are messages being played),
so repeating (or dueling) CQs would be a bit tricky.

For basic message playback, without a lot of audio interfacing hassle
- especially for CQing, it works quite well.

I have looked into using the K3 DVK with N1MM. It works, but I find
that for me using wav files with N1MM is better.
The main reason is that I can manipulate the wav files in a program such as
Audacity to get rid of unwanted pauses etc.
