Re: [digitalradio] What's new in SSTV ?
I downloaded Easypal this afternoon. I have been listening on 14.233 MHz and have managed to capture number of images that were sent by other stations. In terms of setting TX audio levels, any suggestions? I take it that the transmitted signal is wide, so the Tx power output will appear artificially low. Am I coming to the right conclusion here? philw de ka1gmn On Mon, 2010-01-11 at 07:13 -0500, Andy obrien wrote: Phil, Easypal is a whole different world. Makes MMSSTV appear antique.

Re: [digitalradio] What's new in SSTV ?
FYI, there's a group of Hams that do EasyPal almost every day on 7.173 MHz LSB. The quality of the pictures that are sent is amazing. Just like sending a Jpeg file over the internet. 73, Ron ny3j phil williams wrote: I downloaded Easypal this afternoon.

Re: [digitalradio] What's new in SSTV ?
Phil, keep your Easypal signal the way you do other digital modes... no ALC and make sure you are not over driving...

[digitalradio] Can not open CAT port (COM1)
I can not open CAT port (COM1) using any of my communications programs with my FT-1000D. 12 hours ago everything was working fine. I am not aware of any changes made with my computer or radio. I unplugged and reconnected every cable going to the FT-1000D, my SignaLink SL-1+ soundcard interface, and my computer. I unplugged the cable, at the computer end, going from my cable modem to the computer computer network card. I left this cable unconnected. The radio is in the VFO mode. Serial port settings: COM1, 4800 baud, 8 data bits, parity none, stop bits 2, RTS always on, DTR always off. All possible combinations of RTS and DTR have been tried. Disconnecting the serial cable at the computer end gives the same serial port error messages. The error message that I am getting from the MixW program is: cannot open CAT board (COM1) - this port does not exist or it is already used by another program. In MixW, the error message includes CAT will be disabled. The error message in Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) is a bit more informative: FT-1000D, COM1, 4800, Access is Denied - make sure your radio is switched on and not in memory mode HRD's troubleshooting suggestions concerning a USB connection are not pertinent as the SignaLink does not use a USB connection. I have disabled all programs from booting using MSCONFIG - and disabled my antivirus and uninstalled my firewall program. 2. No programs are shown to be running in task manager. 3. In device manager COM1 (serial port 1) is enabled and is reported by device manager to be working correctly. The IRQ is 4 4. When I check Serial Port 1 located in the onboard devices section of the BIOS, the setting reads: AUTO, which is the factory default setting. The possible settings for serial Port 1 include: AUTO, OFF, COM1, COM3 5. The computer has been disconnected from the Web by removing the cable that runs between my network card and cable modem. 6. The LPT (parallel port 1) is called and is set for the factory default setting of: PS/2. The IO address for the integrated parallel port is set for 378h - which is the factory default setting. Switching to a command prompt and entering: echo atdtcom1 returns the error message access denied I am using a Dell Optiplex desktop computer with a Pentium 4 processor; 3.3 GHz; 3 GB; CHKDSK has been run several times - in none of the times has any error been found. As you can see, I am in a loss. I would appreciate any help. Dick Zseltvay dic...@comcast.net
Re: [digitalradio] Can not open CAT port (COM1)
1) do a power-off reboot. 2) check for any programs/services that might try to grab a serial port. Frequent ofenders are Palm active sync, or a old UPS managment program. I'm taking the error message at face value. Either COM1 isn't there or some other program has claimed it. Maybe another instance of your control program.
