Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?
I am not absolutely sure, but I have tested on my FLEX-5000A, and it seems to work: 1) You need two receivers and 2 antennas 2) You must set up VAC1 and VAC2 different, one with I/Q and one without. 3) You must define the right format for the audio in the control program (Cable Rage) Now you can receive CW on one receiver ant JT65 on the other, but off course only send on one antenna. 73 de LA2SL Ulf -Opprinnelig melding- Fra: FlexRadio [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] På vegne av py...@terra.com.br Sendt: 2. november 2012 12:51 Til: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Emne: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?

Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?
Hello Brian, One option that you have is to run CW skimmer as 3khz audio and run to both as audio using VAC at same time. I have done that from time to time. It is easy to swap cwSkimmer "back n forth" if or when your need changes. Hope this helps. 73, Bruce, W8HW -Original Message- From: Brian Lloyd Sent: Friday, November 02, 2012 10:30 AM To: py...@terra.com.br Cc: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?

No. Right now I have to go into setup and mark/unmark the I/Q to VAC box, depending on what application I want to use.

Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?
What would happen if you created a second VAC pair and configured the CW Skimmer Audio I/O to use one side of that pair with the other side connected to JT65HF? I have no way to try that at this time but it just might work. 73, Rich - W3ZJ Brian Lloyd wrote: On Fri, Nov 2, 2012 at 4:50 AM, wrote: I would like to run CWSkimmer, which uses I/Q to VAC, and JT65HF, which does NOT use I/Q to VAC, at the same time.

Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K?
But the upside is that if you do have a second RX, this becomes fairly easy. I run DM780 for PSK (et al) on RX1 and CW Skimmer for wide band CW decode on RX2 at the same time. I'm also having a second brain transplanted to be able to keep track of both of them.Jim KJ2P > Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2012 07:30:14 -0700 > From: brian-wb6...@lloyd.com > To: py...@terra.com.br > CC: flexradio@flex-radio.biz > Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Using both VAC1 and 2 on Flex3K? > > On Fri, Nov 2, 2012 at 4:50 AM, wrote: > > > I would like to run CWSkimmer, which uses I/Q to VAC, and JT65HF, > > which does NOT use I/Q to VAC, at the same time.
