[Dx4win] Packet Window Rig Control of FT1000MP

2004-10-11 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This weekend I decided to use the packet window of DX4WIN for the first time.  
I usually use an internet browser.  I use an FT-1000MP.  On this rig each band 
has
an A channel and a B channel.  Each press of the band button toggles between
A and B.  I usually keep one of the 2 channels centered in the lower CW 
portion
of the band and the other somewhere in the phone portion of the band so I can
easily switch between Phone and CW.  The annoying thing I noticed was that this
seems to get screwed up if I double-click on a packet spot so that DX4WIN sets
my VFO frequency.  It seems to switch to the other channel then set it to the
desired frequency.  It took me awhile to figure out why my A and B channels
were getting screwed up.  Does anyone know if there is some configuration 
item somewhere that will change this behavior?

2004-10-11 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If I am using stacking register A right now in the Phone portion of the band
and I have the B stacking register loaded with something in the CW band, then 
why
does DX4WIN change the B stacking register next time I click on a spot (or at 
least
that's what it appears to do).  I would expect it to set the frequency of the 
current
stacking register, not switch to the other one and change frequency.  I guess I 
can
sorta understand why the software programmer may have done that, but it sure 
doesn't
match the way I use these registers.  If I remember correctly, WriteLog doesn't 
seem
to do it this way.

 Kelly,
 
 Your FT1000 and DX4WIN are both working correctly and there is no config
 change available. What is happening is by clicking on a spot, that frequency
 is being loaded into the memory (one of the two stacking registers) on the
 MP.The last frequency the MP is on is left in the register.

[Dx4win] Packet Window Rig Control of FT1000MP

2004-10-11 Thread Duane A Calvin
On Ten-Tec and ICOM radios, it switches the frequency on the currently
assigned register.  With my Omni VI+ and now with my Orion, I often move
to the band/range (BSR) where the spot is going to point me and then
click the spot.  That way I don't screw up the other 3 registers for that
band.  Other times I'm in a hurry and just go back and fix it later if it
steps on one of my preferred settings.

73,  Duane
