Stan, DX4WIN is a log soft - no SO2R possible Writelog is a contest soft - works great SO2R (freeware N1MM is also contest soft and also great for SO2R )
I am using DX4WIN ( V6 !! ) or Writelog (with MultiKeyer from Writelog). Have never touched a DXD - no needs here ( .. if yes - WL can doit also ) 73 Chris -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Stan Staten Gesendet: Freitag, 5. August 2005 15:58 An: Writelog; 'DX 4 Windows' Betreff: [Dx4win] Mid-confusion stage of SO2R setup I am trying to figure out how to do SO2R with both Writelog and DX4WIN. Therefore I am posting this message on both lists. My goals are to use the computer for CW and DVK as well as microphone, headset and a CW paddle on either radio. (I already have the microphone integrated with a Rigblaster). I have been looking over the documents on the DX-Doubler and the W5XD keyer and have corresponded with the DXD folks. While it would be nice to have the computer automate the switch between radios, it is not a requirement for me as I tend to use the dual VFOs in my MP as a dual radio sort of thing. I am still not clear what will work if at all with either of these items. I would appreciate responses from those who have already gone through this. Right now it might be useful to express what I think I know on it and open it up for correction and comment. 1. The DXD docs say it works with Writelog, but the ham who responded to my questions addressed to the link on their web site uses CT and does not have personal experience with Writelog. 2. The interfacing of the DXD to Writelog seems dependant on use of the W5XD keyer which itself is listed as a SO2R box. 3. From what I can tell from the W5XD keyer stuff on their web page it is a great CW device but doesn't seem to support TX audio. 4. Both boxes are around $200 and it seems you need both. 5. Not clear what works on DX4WIN as the info I found in the DX4WIN documents I have is somewhat general. As I said, I am in the mid-confusion stage and would appreciate corrections to my (mis-) understanding listed herein. 73 Stan, N3HS _______________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Aug 5 11:12:00 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Pete Smith) Date: Fri Aug 5 11:14:05 2005 Subject: [Dx4win] Re: [WriteLog] Mid-confusion stage of SO2R setup In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> At 09:58 AM 8/5/2005, Stan Staten wrote: >... >1.

Definitely does - K4JA did it in his SO2R setup. >2. The interfacing of the DXD to Writelog seems dependant on use of >the W5XD keyer which itself is listed as a SO2R box. No, it just takes some jumper settings inside the DXD itself. Paul didn't use the XD keyer. >3.

No problems within the limited range of what DX4WIN does - sending CW, mainly. AFSK also works, from MMTTY. 73, Pete N4ZR
