Using K2 with N4PY software

[Phillip Zminda]

I recently sold a Ten-Tec Jupiter which I occasionally used with N4PY software. Anyone out there using this or any other Using software with the K2? How well does it work with the K2? I am considering building the RS-232 board, but want to be sure there are good applications for it.

Thanks,

Phil N3ZP

Phil,

The N4PY software works just fine with the K2.

The only drawback is in the rare instance that you have the KRC2ACC band
decoder installed.  The software works fine with the KRC2 band decoder,
it is only the KRC2ACC audio accessory that does not function properly
with the N4PY software.

Phil -

I use the N4PY software with my Pegasus and my K2/100.  The software works really well and
it's close to the same experience with the K2 as with the Pegasus.  Of course, the K2
receiver makes a real improvement in performance.

There are some things the N4PY software can't do with the K2, like change volume.  But,
that's a limitation of the K2 computer instruction set.  There are things you can do with
the software that you can't do with the K2 alone, like have different filter setting for
VFO A and B while working SPLIT.

Plus, N4PY software for the Pegasus is the same as for the K2.  Just specify K2 instead pf
Pegasus in the SETTINGS menu.  There is nothing you need to buy.
