Skip, First, I am very favorably impressed with the NBEMS package. Thanks to you and the team for all of your work.
I have a request for two features. We've been using FLDIGI and getting folks up to speed on a "Summer of Digital Fun" theme using our Educational Radio Net - 8:00pm on Wednesday evenings in Seattle - sorry, the 146.96 machine we use doesn't have echo link (maybe someday). The educational radio net used to end with a CW practice. You were very kind to include a nice CW mode in FLDIGI. I'd like to continue our code practice and just wondered if it would be difficult to add a Farnsworth spacing control to the window on the CW modem setup page so that I might send the 5 or 7 WPM code at a character spacing of 13 wpm (or even 20) with all the advantages to the student which come from getting the sound down and skipping the counting dots and dashes stage. The second feature would be adding ALE-400 as implemented in MULTIPSK. It is looking like one heck of a mode. Thanks for the RS-ID and TUNE and WRAP functionality. This is getting more and more fun. vy 73 de WR5J - Curt Black in Seattle -----Original Message----- From: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com [mailto:digitalra...@yahoogroups.com]on Behalf Of kh6ty Sent: Friday, June 19, 2009 9:35 AM To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [digitalradio] FLDigi / Cygwin Question Hi Tim, Fldigi will look first for the one in the same folder as fldigi.exe, so just make sure the latest is in there and keep them together. The latest public release is 3.11.5, which you can download at http://w1hkj.com/NBEMS/, and includes the latest cygwin1.dll. I doubt if the other programs will look in the folder with fldigi.exe. Just leave the folder intact and create a shortcut from fldigi.exe to the Desktop or elsewhere and you probably already do. You can leave the other cygwin1.dll's where they are. 73, Skip KH6TY Tim N9PUZ wrote: > > > FLDigi uses the cygwin1.dll file in it's Windows installation.
