N1MM Logger and the K2
Locked
 
|
N1MM Logger is a very sophisticated piece of contesting software that
provides logging and computer interfacing for everything from one operator - one rig stations all the way to big multioperator - multi-rig setups in a fully networked environment. Beginning with Version 5.10.17 (the current version is now 5.11.0), the N1MM Logger Contesting Software now includes the Elecraft K2 in the list of radios that can be chosen from the Configuration menu. Until now, K2 users had to pick the generic "Kenwood" radio which used very similar programming commands. At this point, most of the code for the K2 still uses the Kenwood commands but I understand that listing the K2 in the Configuration Options is the first step to writing code that will be more specific to the K2. If you are currently using an older version of N1MM, I'd encourage you to update to the latest version in order to take advantage of the latest inclusions. Be aware that you must first install version 5.7.2 before you can install the latest version! Carefully read the directions on the site. So you don't loose anything, you could install the new versions in a different directory and play with them for a while. One item has already been the included for the K2. The "set filter code" for one mode (SSB Wide) is now K2 specific (K22;FW99991;K0;) - the rest of the filter codes are still in Kenwood format. If you are interested in knowing more about setting the filter codes, you could check out my little very non-technical treatise in the N1MM help files and quickly set the codes for SSB Narrow, CW Wide, etc. To access this file go to www.n1mm.com and select "Support" and then "Supported Radios" from the menus at the top of the main page - then scroll to "Elecraft." Apparently a number of other items have already been "fixed" that allow for better control over "split" functions and the use of the K2 in Single Operator Two Radio (SO2R) contesting. More will likely follow with new releases. The N1MM Logger is freeware and available for download at www.n1mm.com. It's nice to see the K2 getting recognized as a serious contesting radio! I don't have any affiliation with the group, just am a very satisfied user of the program. 73 es gud contesting and dxing -- Don N4HH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

The filter select codes can be modified for every mode (right click in
the band map, there are six selections). I've found the best code to use is FW0000; that way you can cycle through all four filters from the keyboard (Alt-'). You just have to ignore the Wide/Narrow indicator on the band map. The split functions are almost fixed, it appears to be common problems with the Kenwood codes. I have two K2s set up using the two sound card SO2R and it works great. I just wish the operator could use the setup to its' full capability. I know there are a few K2s out there with the ssb module, so lets see you all this coming weekend for phone SS!

OK, I am going to have to write a K2 mode for Emacs.

That's great news Ken - thanks for sharing the Alt-' to cycle through the
filters with FW0000; - that's a neat trick that ought to be included in the help files! The more I use N1MM the more impressed I am with it's versatility. I've been following your posts on the N1MM group reflector with the notion of getting in touch with you when I get another K2 so I can give the SO2R setup a try - 'course, it's a pretty sure thing that I'm not coordinated enough to pull it off! See you in the contest. 73 -- Don N4HH ----- Original Message ----- From: "K6MR" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 7:11 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] N1MM Logger and the K2 > The filter select codes can be modified for every mode (right click in the > band map, there are six selections).

If you use Emacs, you might be interested in the K2 mode I started.
