That will work as well, 50WPM CW keying macro; sorry Tim, I did not read that far down the email thread. The original reason why I have and use Test Tone Generator was due to an older analog non-SDR radio that I had. So I just kept on using it when I made the switch to exclusively using a Flexradio; old habits die hard ;-)

Nothing. That is what I proposed earlier, but using the CWX form. Just set up a macro with a bunch of fives and the keying speed as fast as you want it. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Mike Schelly Sent: Friday, May 08, 2009 8:19 PM To: 'W5CUL'; audio...@charter.net; 'Ray Andrews' Cc: 'FLEX USERS' Subject: Re: [Flexradio] PowerSDR - amp tuning pulser? For a tuning pulser, what's wrong/write with 50wpm dits in CW mode?

As an interm solution, while waiting on a possible tuning pulser feature to be added, you could use an audio pulse sound file played back while transmitting in SSB mode to perform the same function. I use a small software package called Test Tone Generator, setup to generate a 200Hz sine wave pulsed at .07s per tone burst. I interface this with VAC, and off I go pulsing the Amp. It has worked great for pulse tuning my Alpha. Test Tone Generator does cost a little, but you may be able to find a free alternative software package that could do the same thing, or even create such a pulsed audio sound file yourself for play back. Just a thought. 73, Mike W5CUL -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Jim Barber Sent: Friday, May 08, 2009 4:16 PM To: Ray Andrews Cc: 'FLEX USERS' Subject: Re: [Flexradio] PowerSDR - amp tuning pulser? After Tim told me about the Feature Request web gadget I logged in and saw that two others had made essentially the same request. Sometimes there is comfort in redundancy... ;-) The Ameritron gadget will work fine in the interim, though.
