Hi Tony, I had the function in mind, then cajoled Lyle into doing the hard part -- the demodulator. Somehow he figured it out in just a few days. The key idea that led to the PSK31 and RTTY decoders was this: that a ham receiver should be able to demodulate all commonly heard signals and

Wayne: Re: CW-To-Data Feature I'm glad you thought of it! It must have taken a while to get from concept to production. I would imagine that it's not that simple to add other data modes -- the foundation is there but my guess is that it would require more code crunching? Thanks for all.

I have had similar problems a couple of times over the years and it was the coax connectors on the synthesizer board.  Simply unplugging them and re-installing them fixed the problem.  However, the last time I also put a small amount of Deoxit on the connector. Richard, K6VV On 2/6/2023 8:19
