Hi John, Mike Markowski AB3AP wrote a neat program back in 2007 which reads the configuration of the K2, see
http://udel.edu/~mm/ham/elecraft/ It takes a few steps to get it installed as it run under java, so follow the instructions carefully. If you are running under windows the steps to copy the "rxtxSerial.dll" and "RXTXcomm.jar" files are critical. Also if you get a Java update you have to re-copy these files to the updated version. With XP I needed to run the "Prams.bat" file to get it to go. I found that the output data was only displayed on the screen so after emailing with Mike he suggested that the contents of Params.bat be changed to set CLASSPATH=.java Params COM4 >K2params.txt K2params.txt This wrote the parameters to a text file which was stored in the same directory as Params.bat. Be sure to change the Com port number in the Params.bat file to that which has the serial connection to the K2 and to read BFO settings you have to have the frequency counter probe connected. Hope this helps, 73 Nigel ZL2DF ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
