[Elecraft] K2 Control Software: HRD vs TRX-Manager vs N4PY

2011-03-05 Thread Brian - N5BCN
Hi all, I've been using HRD to interface to my K2 and, for the most part, I'm very happy with it. I use DM780, the logbook and have controlled the K2 over the internet in conjunction with IP-Sound. I get the general feeling, however, that (understandably) current development is focused more on t

Of course I do not want to write a VFO linearizer. If a Company releases code to the community, they only release what might be remotely useful. For instance they could essentially have an interface that would give you hooks to change menus, but not change the VFO linearization. That also assure

You have to remember that there is quite a bit in that firmware. All the calibration and linearization routines are in there. Do you really want to sit down and write code to try and set up VFO linearity, or code to properly address the xtal filters. This is a daunting task and I would never rel

Probably the very last thing Elecraft would want to do, is to release the source for their firmware in the K2. I suspect there is like 999lbs of code in a 1000lb container! If you know what I mean. Often firmware is written even with real-time timed loops, and all sorts of interrupt tricks - to m

Gary, What a shame. I think you are missing an opportunity, but I certainly understand your decision, and it IS your intellectual property. I think the chance that someone would clone the hardware design is small, and if they wanted to, that could be done now, and I'm sure software could be w

Tom, The best that you can do for making specific software (firmware) functions of your own making is to create the entire K2 control firmware on your own and burn it into the appropriate chips. Elecraft keeps the firmware proprietary, and there are a number of valid reasons behind that - an edge

The K2 is a very nice design, using modular and flexible hardware (relays for everything, under microprocessor control). Has anyone done anything to radically change the control software in their K2? Can we get access to the software that runs the controller and menues, so if we wanted differe

I've tried the N4PY windows s/w and like it. But that's the only one tried so far. Are there others worth considering? Something more designed for the K2 rather than the Pegasus as the case with N4PY. Keyboard cw is a requirement. Thanks, Bill K3UJ __
