  I bought a DigiKeyer and it arrived today. I have it hooked up to my
  TS-2000, but there is no where to plug in the RTTY plug. The ACC2 port
  has a connector for it. 
  Does anyone have any experience with the DigiKeyer and the TS-2000?

I think it is designed to not have help files.  Is there something I can
help you with ?

  I forgot about that. My FSK key on the Microham cable for the TS2000
  just hangs loose. It appears to not be needed. I think I recall my
  brain being puzzled when it first arrived and concluding that that
  section of the cable was for another Kenwood, the 570. Just ingnore
  it. FSK RTTY and AFSK RTTY with my TS2000 and my Microkeyer works
  just fine, I assume the same will apply to your Digikeyer.

I have no experience using it with a TS-2000, but I do own a
DigiKeyer and I do use it with FSK on my FT-1000mp.  Last
night, I set up MMTTY and it works fine with FSK.

Given a choice between AFSK and FSK, I'd definitely use FSK
for RTTY whenever possible.  Maybe it is less important to you.

 I am getting an error meassage from Commander. Receive Buffer Overflow 

Receive buffer overflow means data is arriviong so rapidly that the

Any ideas?

EasyPal Guide - updated 12/22/06

EasyPal is the work of Erik VK4AES.  Do not bother him with emails 
about
the program.  If you need help, someone on the DIGSSTV newsgroup may 
be
able to help you.  Be sure to include the version number in any report
of a problem.  Also keep up to date and use the latest version.

Yahoo Groups DIGSSTV:

File:   Twain Select

EXIT - Click to close the program.

Setup:  Initial Setup - Enter/change Callsign, CommPort, and 
Soundcard.
Click the OK button to update/exit.

Click the OK button to close the window
with the message Some systems may require
a program restart.  If you do not exit
EasyPal at this time, the transmit frequency
of DRM transmissions will be offset by 50 Hz.

TX Setup - Default DRM Mode should be Mode B, QAM 16,
   Bandwidth 2.5 khz, Error Protect Normal, and
   Interleave Short.  On the TX tab, it will appear
   as B/2.5/Hi/16/Sht.

   If EasyPal starts sending in a different mode than
   selected, change to a different mode and back again
   before clicking the OK button.

   Start Delay of 12 will reduce transmit time by
   reducing the number of redundant segments.  For
   very short transmissions such as Text messages,
   a Start Delay of 12 may be too short a time for all
   stations to achieve MSC sync before the 
transmission
   is finished.  In this case, select a Start Delay 
of 24.
   The setting of 24 will return when EasyPal is 
restarted.

   TX DC Freq is best left at the default 350 Hz.

   RX WFall Offset is best left at the default 0.

   Form Size - Take care not to size the window too
   small as you may loose access to the
   adjustment slider and get the program
   stuck in this size.

Progressive RX - Check to enable viewing image as it is

 Using Progressive RX may increase the chance 
of
 program lock-up or other errors.

Show RX Full Screen - Image displayed full screen once 
received.
  Animated GIF files will not be displayed
  full screen.

TX WaterFall Monitor - Allows receiving while sending.

   Turning on the MONITOR function on my
   Icom IC-746 will send my TX audio back 
to
   the input of my soundcard.  The TX 
signal
   can be seen in the waterfall.

   DRM transmissions sent can be copied

  If received from EasyPal, the first number 
is
  the file ID number.  Next is the last

is

remaining
  are all the segment numbers required.

[digitalradio] what the heck is this waterfall display telling me?

2007-03-29 Thread Tooner
Hey group,

Heard this noise today, but couldn't identify it as a digital signal.
 Been in the same spot for a year now and have never seen this on my
MixW display!

Screen shot here:

http://img244.imageshack.us/my.php?image=oddnoise14071dm8.jpg

On and off for a couple of minutes, then nothing.  Strong enough
signal to trip my digital interface, so I'm guessing it's around my
neighborhood.  Doesn't fit any RFI, etc. that I've seen before.

Any ideas?
