Logger32

G'day,

Been checking the command from Logger32 to the K2 when directly entering a
frequency eg. 18073kHz:

FR0;FA00018073000;MD3;FA00018073000;

FRO cancels split and presumably CW reverse as well.

Bugger!

Regards,

Mike VP8NO

Re: Logger32

Mike,

My fuzzy memory tells me that this has been discussed before on the
reflector. I recall that the Logger32 author has his reasons for doing
it that way, but I just don't remember why - but I do recall that it was
controversial.

Perhaps someone will want to comb the archives. I don't use Logger32,
so my interest is only in passing along this information.

Re: Logger32

Hi,

I believe that the author is totally anti split operation which , however,
is a simple fact of life.

the following is part of the copyright:

Authorization to use this software is limited to radio amateurs who agree
to strictly comply with the following operating practices:

· Always use your full callsign when calling another station

· Never respond to calling operators who do not use full callsigns

· Do not spell your name or QTH unless specifically asked to do so

· Do not call the operator of the station you are in contact with
'Sir', 'Your Highness', 'Doctor', 'Monk' or any other title (real or
imaginary)

· Do not end your transmissions with 'QSL', 'Roger', 'Over', or 'Over
Over'

· Do not begin your transmissions with 'QSL', 'Roger', or 'Roger
Roger'

· Do not operate (or condone those that do) on DX list or DX net
operations

· Know the callsign of the station you are calling before you call

a.. Do not operate on SSB with wider than 2.8 KHz bandwidth filters
(or condone those that do)
a.. Do not use external devices to unnecessarily distort the audio

b.. Do not precede an exchange of signal reports with "Please copy
...," "When last heard...," or any other superfluous colloquial phrase.
I took the time and effort to write the software. Many others have taken
the time and effort to debug the software and write the documentation. At
the very least, you can make the effort to comply with the terms of the
use of this software. If you chose not to operate in accordance with the
requirements listed above, please do not use this software.

I guess that says it all.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO

RE: Logger32

Mike,

FR0 sets the receiver to VFO A - which is appropriate when
clicking on a spot (set operation to the main VFO or main receiver),
set frequency, then set the transmit frequency if different and
finally turn on split).

It is the MD3; command that is setting normal CW (MD3; is CW,
MD7; is CW-R). The discussion with any software author needs to
be to support CW-R if you generally operate CW-R instead of CW.
Some software allows the user to specify CW or CW-R as the default
when clicking on a spot but that choice is used for all spots
(it is, after all, necessary to set the mode when clicking on a
spot).

Re: Logger32

G'day Joe,

>From the KIO2 programmer's ref:

FR (RX VFO Assignment and SPLIT Cancel; GET/SET)

SET/RSP format: FRn; where n specifies the receive/transmit VFO: 0 for VFO
A and 1 for VFO B.

Sending an FR SET command always cancels SPLIT mode.

So, it looks like there is no option but to remember to re initiate split
every time. There are times when you can toggle between two targets when
using the bandmap, split required in each case. To lose the split when
toggling sadly sometimes leads to the dreaded UP, UP lid!

I guess if it didn't work this way there would be an equal number of split
instead of simplex errors. Win some lose some.

I use CW reverse above 20M to keep the tuning sense consistent.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO

Re: Logger32

There is another way to do what you want (assuming I understand what
you want...). Use the SW09 command to toggle between the two VFOs.
This is the same as tapping the A/B key, and does not cancel SPLIT mode.
