Due to a hard disk problem I have switched to Linux on the shack
computer. I know there are a few people using Linux with their K2s.
Perhaps they could give me a bit of help.
I have installed gMFSK. I am using a K2 serial cable which has the
addition of a transistor switch on DTR. With MixW under Windows this
allowed me to use the computer as a CW keyer, and PTT was done by
software. I have enabled the Hamlib interface. It appears to me that
the key input is providing the PTT (since on the K2 the PTT and
straight key connections are one and the same) but there is no CW
keying. When I try to TX in CW, the K2 goes key down all the time and
audio CW is emitted by the speaker.
There seems to be no way to send CW from gMFSK. If I'm wrong, perhaps
someone could help me out with the configuration.
Also, what's the best logging program under Linux? Preferably
something integrated with gMFSK and with eQSL support.
