Good morning: I DO NOT want to re-start a philosophical discussion about PTT on Orions. I DO want to figure out how to configure and wire an SO2R station using one (or maybe two) Orions. :-) Accordin
I'm scratching my head over this as well, Mark. Let me know what you come up with. My station will be 2 Orions and 2 amplifiers. Eventually I intend to use the PTT line (and amplifier keyline) signal
Hi Eric: Your response is the closest I've gotten to a useful answer thus far. To be fair, I haven't been flamed for asking, either! :-) The PTT thread had gotten a bit heated at one point. I'll keep
Hi again, Eric: I'm borrowing Frank's station for the CQ 160 CW contest, and there's going to be an Orion there! :-) I'm also helping John Evans, N3HBX, with his station configuration and planning fo
The EXT T/R percent is percent of 1 second. The QSK delay is how long it takes the receiver to come back on after transmit. Carl Moreschi N4PY Franklinton, NC -- Original Message -- From: "Mark Baile
No, I don't know what these units are. I don't have my radio yet, so can't play with it. Should be relatively easy to measure with a scope. QSK delay, if I recall the discussion earlier, adjusts the
Mark, you didn't mention what contest software you're using. If it's WriteLog or N1MM logger, why are you running a separate PTT line? For N1MM Logger, check the "Radio PTT via command" checkbox unde
Hi Barry: TRLog. Surely the Orion doesn't support CW PTT via serial port command since it doesn't support it from the radio PTT port! Time to do a bit more reading... Thanks for the suggestion. 73, M
I'm just suggesting that if you can possibly use a software package that doesn't require the PTT cable in SSB, then you won't need to disconnect it when you switch modes to CW. I just experimented wi
