[Dx4win] RTTY Macros

[Bill]

Paul

Yes it is in addition. 

I must admit that I am not a great fan of digi modes. 
RTTY can be fun when in the mood but psk is a big 
yawn. As a result I don't use them very often and so I 
am in danger of not knowing what I'm talking about (no 
change there then).

There are 2 banks of macros giving 16 in total. I've left 
them populated more or less as they arrived when I 
downloaded the update to 7.01. I just edited the 
details.

I have 3 modes of operating - normal qso, dipping into 
contests for dx and rubber stamp dx. The normal qso 
is well catered for by the 2 banks of macros. However I 
could do with another bank of 8 to take care of 
contests and dx.

Has anyone else asked for this?

 Bill,
 
 Is this in addition to the macros you get with the Ctrl+ key?

 Hi
 
 Any chance of adding another row of macros? It would 
 be really useful.

[Dx4win] RTTY Window and RigBlaster

[J. F. Samuels]

John, a more accurate answer to your question might be, No, because the 
RTTY window only sends and receives character data.  It was supposed to be 
used with a hardware TNC, such as a KAM, which does the encoding and 
decoding work.  I use the window that way.

The alternative method is to use a software package, such as MMTTY or MixW, 
to do the sound-to-digital and vice-versa conversions.  Then the RTTY window 
is not used, since those packages have their own windows.  The newest 
version of DX4WIN has integrated support for MMTTY, I am told.

Larry, I would be interested in your jumper settings and connections for 
your setup --please post them.

RigBlasterPro, TS-870, KAM+, Rotor control, etc.

John,

I use the RIGblaster Plus with an Icom 756 ProIII, DX4Win 7.01, MMTY in FSK,
and a WaveNode wattmeter (LPT port interface). I operate phone, CW, RTTY,
and PSK modes, and it works well _AFTER_ spending a lot of time messing
around with the internal jumpers. I can switch between modes instantly
without any reconfiguration or switch flipping -- accomplished only by using
2 serial and two parallel ports.

- first serial port for rig control
- second serial port for MMTTY transmit control
- first parallel LPT port for rotor control
- second parallel port for CW keying and Wavenode wattmeter interface

If you decide to go with a RIGblaster Plus, let me know -- I'd be happy to
share the document I wrote that describes the correct settings in the RB
Plus. (( I do not know if those would translate into equal success with a
straight RIGblaster))
