Re: [digitalradio] Re: RS ID use ?
i guess i have the same feeling about the updates to mixW, just scared to do something new as the mixW works well for PSK and CW. i am using a microHam USB 2 interface with my Kenwood TS2K. Convince me the changeover to HRD word be easy! well actually convince me it is possible. i know i will have to learn and configure a few things, so i am not looking for a plug-n-play changeover. i know there is a HRD Yahoo users group, so i am going to it now to sign up, thanks for the reply.

My sense, no facts, is that Mixw is a dying product. It is a good product but I just have a hunch that Nick has tired of the project and that it is not likely to get the updates frequently enough to compete with DM780, fldigi, pocketdigi, or Multipsk. You can run MixW with FLdigi (other other apps with RS ID) in the background and use RSID receive just as a way to keep any eye on what is on the band .

Re: [digitalradio] Re: RS ID use ?
Hi all, I'm another long-time MixW user and prefer it over the other programs. But like Andy, K3UK, I'm afraid MixW is becoming another orphaned ham program! How well I remember the old XPWin programs and Gary just threw in the towel one day and got out of ham radio. I've seen posts before about the future of MixW, some reporting Nick is indeed working on an upgrade. Instead of speculation, I'm sure someone out there must know Nick personally who can get the answers from the horses mouth, as they say. 73 Buddy WB4M - Original Message - From: obrienaj aobri...@stny.rr.com To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, October 21, 2009 10:56 PM Subject: [digitalradio] Re: RS ID use ?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: RS ID use ?
Andy, I asked Nick about adding RSID to Mixw back in May of this year. He said it was possible, but the problem was finding the time to get it done. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
