Thanks, we all enjoyed producing it!
Actually perhaps we could reform the breakout box as an ‘enclosure’
for the D-44 kit. I’ll give give away a free d-44 interface to anyone who
comes up with an ‘enclosure’ method which does not need a machine
shop to create!
Thanks again

Looking to see if anyone has been able to program other buttons on the shuttle
pro. Or...can you point me to where I can find the keystrokes required for
turning on or off functions other than what is on the keyboard screen of the
powerSDR console?
Thanks

To be clear, we are moving away from the “old
keyer.”
As soon as we have an alternative to the existing memory and keyboard
buffer options (which will likely come in the form of 3rd party
applications), we will be dropping the old keyer
completely. I would believe that there

I have owned my SDR1K since Oct 2004. I have never had any problems with
RFI or grounding. I run high power with an Ameritron AL-1500 with the
SDR about 1 foot away and have never had a problem. I started with the
Audigy 2ZS card and soon realized its limitations. When I switched to
