Guenter, CW SKEDs from the garden? What about the dirt in the paddles? :-)
What you want is a comm port extender over TCP/IP. The new FlexCAT software that Bob, is working might have this capability (hint, hint Bob), but it will not be ready until the end of the year. In the mean time, check out these links. I have not used any of these products so I have no recommendation to give. http://www.labtam-inc.com/articles/remapro-1-2.html http://www.serial-port-communication.com/serial-over-tcpip/ http://www.softplatz.com/software/share-serial-port-over-tcp-ip/ You would connect the keyer to a comm port just like you would if the keyer was directly connected to the PC. All of the other remote control aspects of running the rig would be like it is documented in the KB using VNC and IP-SOUND (or Skype). -Tim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of guenter Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2007 5:30 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] cw remote I have no sdr yet and no real experience with PowerSDR, so my question may be answered very easy. I convinced my XYL to allow order of the Flex5k with the argument, that she can operate her YL skeds with her laptop from the kitchen, garden or elsewhere (with network access available). I will put the radio hardware into a box somewhere with remote control. Next question of my XYL was: can I operate cw (with a keyer of corse, not with the computer) ? ?? I do not want to invent a protocol for fast keyer tranfer via network, so I will transfer her ETMs cw audio to the computers mic input and via the voice chanal to the remote box. But now: how to configure PowerSDR? I think, that I will need SSB mode, set vox on in a fast mode, switch some narrow RX and TX filters and may be do some other setting. Question is: Is there a "one button" solution? My "ideal solution" would be a hidden configuration switch for the CWL und CWU button to operate these button either with hardware key or tone signal. As I said, I may be completely wrong and there is another very simple solution. Tnx for your ideas.
