Re: [Elecraft] Which terminal program for contesting/etc with K3
Hi Phil, Both N1MM and WriteLog are very popular and K3 friendly. And both programs can activate K3 macros if you desire. A second monitor is independent of any program. It's strictly a Windoz thing. You'll be able to slide one or more of the various windows from any contest program to either monitor. If you have a P3 with the SVGA option and one of your monitors has dual or triple input capabilities you'll be able to look at your expanded K3 screen on one monitor and do your contest logging on the other. Push a button on the front of the monitor and it's back to being a second monitor under Windoz control. If you have the desk space you could add a third monitor just for P3/SVGA use. Some station photos on QRZ.com show hams with 3 and 4 monitors. 73, Mike K2MK Phil Anderson wrote > Hey Guys, > > Wondering about which software package to use with my new and now built > K3 Kit?

When I got the new Optiplex a few months ago I was seriously considering adding another video card for a second monitor. In the meanwhile I experimented with an old LCD analog only TV that had an HDMI input. It works great as a second monitor, no additional hardware required. You can probably pick up TV’s like that at Walmart for $75 or so. My 22” Samsung monitor is on the regular video out connection and the TV on the HDMI connection.

[Elecraft] Which terminal program for contesting/etc with K3
Hey Guys, Wondering about which software package to use with my new and now built K3 Kit? By the way; love the radio. Particularly like the CWT feature. I op primarily CW but will want to do some of the digital modes as well. I like DXing and contesting. I want to optimize performance for those two activities. I'm currently running with the N3FJP software (disc set) and use that for contest logs and general logging to LoTW/eQSL. I also have the MPLAB dsPIC kit, planning there to experiment with some additional DSP filtering at output points on the K3. I've heard of N1MM and several others. Curious on opinions of which way to go, including dual monitors for my Dell OPTIPLEX 7010 running with system 7. tnx, Phil, W0XI, Lawrence, KS. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
