[digitalradio] EasyPal, Internet, Hamradio a small info and a big goodbye
-- Forwarded message -- From: Guenter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, Nov 15, 2008 at 8:45 AM Subject: [digsstv] EasyPal, Internet, Hamradio a small info and a big goodbye To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello group members and readers, Here is Guenter DD9ZO from Germany. Some of you know me as a betatester and translator of EasyPal. I stopped this work in the end of august 2008 due to my view of the new internet-features like automatic ftp-upload vs. copyright etc. Now with the new version (14.Nov.2008) of EasyPal there is a new feature build in. Remote control of TX-time for a file over the world-wide web. Well maybe next step ist remote control of searching on the HDD for a TX-File and remote control for the PTT on the transmitter. As I said in a message before, this is no longer my job and I do not agree with this kind of features in a hamradio program. Here is the E-Mail that I wrote today to Erik Sundstrup VK4AES: -- Hello Erik, downloaded the 14.Nov.2008 EasyPal-version from KC1CS webpage. Installed it and read the update information. Then deinstalled it. It is the next step in the wrong way from hamradio to internet communication! Please set my name, callsign and picture out of the slide-show in the about-menue. Due to only a few users left here in the German-speaking aerea of Europe, you also can cancel the German GUI in your program, then there is more space for some new www-features in the program. What's your next features? Remote keying of the transmitter and automatic search for tx-pictures on the harddisc via the world-wide-web? Let us all communicate via cellphone now, only the display shows the callsign. Why using TX and RX, hundred of watts energy and long wires for antennas, it is so easy to do the job on landline and www... So Erik I'm a old fashiond man, thinking that hamradio is a hobby that has a lot to do with radio over the air, not via internetserver! So let me out and delete all my personalities in your project! I no longer agree with this new features of the internet program EasyPal any more. Vy. 73 de Guenter DD9ZO So I will say also Goodbye to all group-members and readers here in this group, I think there is no need for me to post in this group until a new digital-sstv program is on the run, featuring hamradio things and not feeding pimp my webpage internet junkies. Vy. 73 de Guenter DD9ZO.
RE: [digitalradio] Black Friday deals of interest to hams
On the Dell, better be sure to buy a powered USB hub for Ham use. I spent a few hours getting the sound and printer going on a new one for a relative last week. The Dell USB powered speakers, keyboard and mouse consumed 3 of the rear USB ports. A Brother color laser printer took up the fourth one. Until I was able to balance the load among the 4 USB ports in the back, there wasn't enough current available for stable voltage to get a recognition signal on the bus for Vista to identify the USB items and activate them for use. With most ham software written for Serial ports (which haven't been standard on computers for nearly a decade), the need for high enough current reserve on the USB bus is a must. Dell managed to fall below the minimal acceptance on this model, but a properly powered external USB Hub will probably solve the problem. Otherwise, it looked to be an OK computer for beginner or dedicated purpose. I don't know how the sound card would do on digital modes, but it did have front-mounted line in and headphone out jacks, and the sound applet lets you disable rear channels and special effects for straight stereo and 2 speaker operation.
