[Flexradio] 6m FM - deadband?
Hi all I'm on 6m (51.530Mhz) with a Flex 3000 and I am seeing 6m deadband below the ferquency output on VFO A. What does this mean and how do I make it use NFM. This is a working frequency in the UK (bandplan 50-52Mhz).

I have never tried operating in that part of the band, but just tuning there now it says the same thing as you see. However, it looks like just an info text, as there doesn't seem to be any restriction on transmitting there. I can get full power out on FMN across that band segment. As for the text, I imagine it may have something to do with a guard-band between repeater in/out and simplex frequencies. I am not familiar with the US bandplan in that frequency range. The text can be modified by editing the database.

Re: [Flexradio] 6m FM - deadband?
According to the 6m bandplan on the ARRL website, 51.5-51.6 MHz is FM Simplex (6 channels). I have found other band plans online that list nothing between 51.48 MHz 51.62 MHz. This is one of the frequency ranges in 6m listed as Deadband in the database. In any event, the text is for reference only can be changed by judicious editing of the BandText table in the database. 73, Ray, K9DUR http://k9dur.info ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/

[Flexradio] Keying CW on Flex-3000 using Writelog and DDUtil
Radio is Flex-3000 with Windows XP, PDSR 2.0.22, VSP Manager and DDUtil. Just abandoned Vcom today and went to VSP Manager and configured DDUtil. I have Fldigi working perfectly in this environment, DXbase working OK and Writelog is communicating fine as well. However, I cannot seem to get Writelog to key the radio for CW. Looked in various reflector archives and the KB but the only reference I could find is in the KB that is a bit dated and presumably before the DDUtil era. I understand how to configure as is discussed in that KB article but not how to do this using DDUtil. I have experimented a bit but still no joy. If anyone has some experience, would appreciate the help. Thinking about dabbling in Field Day. Maybe I should be looking at N1MM? 73 Mike, N1MD -- Mike The truth will set you free . . . but first it will make you miserable. ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
Re: [Flexradio] Keying CW on Flex-3000 using Writelog and DDUtil
Michael, It takes me some experimentation every time I set up Writelog to do CW so here we go... this time I get to write it down too! WL keying is handled without pass through via DDUtil. You will need two Virtual Serial Port pairs - one for radio control, the other for keyer control. Let's use COM10/COM18 and COM11/COM19 Let's assume that we are using COM10/18 as the RCP link between DDUtil and Writelog. On the RCP tab of DDUtil, configure COM18 and RCP2 (you can use any of the RCP entries). Start Writelog and open the Port Setup page (Tools menu, Ports)... Step 1 - configure the CAT support so WL knows what mode/frequency its on. - Set the first radio line as: COM10 as the comm port. CW check box - unchecked Rig type = Kenwood Baud rate = default Poll - checked Comm PTT - NO Step 2 - configure the keyer support - Set the second radio line as: COM11 as the comm port CW check box - checked Rig Type - No Rig Baud rate - default Poll - checked Comm PTT - Yes Step 3 - tell WL to generate CW Set CW Keyer Type to PC Generates Step 4 - set the PTT control Click on the CW PTT button Check - Command Rig on COM port Set PTT to CW Delay - 20 or 30 milliseconds Step 5 - configure PowerSDR Setup via the Setup menu item a) On the CAT Control tab, insure that PTT control is NOT enabled - you do this by clearing RTS and DTR in the dialog. b) On the DSP/Keyer tab, set the Connections controls as : Primary - Radio Secondary - COM19 PTT Line - DTR Key Line - RTS Click on Apply and you should be DONE It would be easier to show this with screen shots but the reflector strips out screen shots - I'm sending you a separate email message with screen shots from my set up so you can see whats going on.

Re: [Flexradio] Parallel Port for F3K
One thing I would like to comment on a Parallel Port on the newer computers. Some mother boards actually have a Parallel port on them but NO Cable / DB25 connector output to the case. I have 3 different computers that have this and I found some cables from cables to go that plug right into the MB and mounts to the computer case giving me a standard DB-25 Parallel Port. You can look in your Hardware and see if you see in the Device Manager (COM LPT) a Printer Port (LPT1) then chances are YOU HAVE a Parallel port already. Now you want to pop the case and look and see if you have Pin's in your motherboard where the LPT is located if you do then your ALL set, just order up a Cable from your Mother board manufacture or Possible Cables to Go Plug it in, Mount the DB25 in the back of the case and your done. Hope this helps some one out. 73's Bret WX7Y -Original Message- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of William Evans Sent: Sunday, June 19, 2011 5:35 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] Parallel Port for F3K My computer does not have a parallel port which I need to get the band information out to antenna and amplifier switches.

Re: [Flexradio] Parallel Port for F3K
I haven't seen a motherboard in ages that didn't include headers for a serial port, parallel port, several USB ports and sometimes 1394. The problem is that none of them use the same header spacings for the ports, plus stick them so far away from where the slot strips are on the computer case that it would require 16 cables or more to access them. I have drawers of serial and parallel wiring adapters that will not work on any motherboard I use. You have to wonder why they went to all the trouble to engineer these ports and then make them unusable. 73 Neal On Sun, Jun 19, 2011 at 9:08 PM, Tony Estep estept...@gmail.com wrote: On Sun, Jun 19, 2011 at 8:00 PM, Bret Mills bmil...@ecso.com wrote: ...Some mother boards actually have a Parallel port on them but NO Cable / DB25 connector output to the case... = Bret makes a very good point.

[Flexradio] [FlexRadio] Parallel Port for F3K
Bill I don’t know anything about the device you listed but if you check the Flex.WiKi There is an area for known good parallel printer ports. You are correct not all of the newer printer ports will work especially if you are using Windows 7 – 64. Anyway I’m using a SIIG 2S1P Combo board. P/N JJ-P2-S5 with a F3K. However the device that you mention has what appears to be an advantage to me. I like the built in LED’s. Perhaps the best thing to do might be to contact the company. Considering some of there other product I’m sure they can tell you if it will work or not. Just make sure you tell them everything.
