Folks, I'm proud to announce RoverLog 2_4_0 which has the following updates vs. 2_3_3: * Added Super Lookup module for using a fast external database to lookup...
Folks, I'd like to build up a "database" of RoverLog setups to give newcomers examples to work from. If you have a block diagram of your station and .ini...
Hello to all, Does anyone know of a way to use the same com port to control a radio and send cw? If you set the rig server and keyer server both the com1:,...
Terry, Right now there isn't a way to do this. The Rig Module and the Keyer Module both attempt to open the serial port exclusively. I admit, it would be...
Hi Tom, Thanks for the reply. Well, I have been using Writelog for quite a while and it works with one serial port so I designed a really cool interface that...
Hi Terry, I'm very glad you're using RoverLog. Thanks for the support! You've got it right. In order to support as many platforms as possible, I reluctantly...
Tom, One last question, if we use Winkey for cw and the PC audio for SSB, would we use the same comm port setting thus use the same PTT signal for both modes? ...
Terry, I'm sorry to say that this won't currently work either. The WinKey "driver" within RoverLog keeps the serial port open to the keyer at all times, so...
OK, so I would use Winkey on one comm port, SSB audio keying on a second port, radio control on the 3rd and rotor control on the fourth, correct? Thanks, Terry...
Yes, that's right. Thank goodness for USB to serial adapters! Let's look at what savings we could get if I add the ability to split handshaking lines on one...
In most high power VHF stations, especially ones running remote preamps, everything must be sequenced, this eliminates VOX and any type of break in cw. WinKey...
It's not hard---it uses TCP/IP sockets. But I would probably create an abstraction layer that "owns" the serial port and then have the two functions call into...
HI All, A couple of months ago, I installed version 2.2.8 on five machines to see if I could ger RoverLog running for our multi-op effort in June and...
Hi Bob, It could be that something is wrong in the roverlog.ini or <contest>.ini file. Please try renaming roverlog.ini to roverlog_ini.bak and then create a...
Folks, I'm proud to announce the release of RoverLog 2_4_1 and an updated manual. You can download these from http://roverlog.2ub.org/. The release includes...
Folks, I'm looking for your feedback on using RoverLog for the June contest. Could you please take a moment to share your experiences? 1. Did you use RoverLog?...
... I did, downloaded the newest version about 5 minutes before 2pm :) ... I didn't, but after that 6m opening I had a sore throat :) I'll be thinking about...
... Yep, first time, replaced KMRover ... Nope, integration happened too late :( ... Stinkpad 770Z P2 with 256M, Win2K .. but next time it'll be on Linux ... ...
Tom, We at K8GP made a huge leap and moved to Roverlog from CT for this contest. We have used CT for years and have "lived" with the poor (almost none) VHF...
Tom, As you know, Tom and used Roverlog again this June. We absolutely love it for Roving. Specific answers: 1. Did you use RoverLog? If not, why not? yes 2....
Terry, Thanks very much for the detailed report! A couple of comments below. Tom. -- Tom Mayo - N1MU - www.2ub.org ... Thank you for looking over the manual....
Folks, W1RT alerted me to a "feature" that you might run across when loading logs. Version 2_4_1 expects 79-character log lines. This includes room for a...
I just thought of something! If you're talking about MAKING a pass or sked vs. ACCEPTING in item 5. below... If you do not have "Return to Call Entry After...
Another thought, if you set "Sound Bell for Annunciator Messages" to 1, your item 6. below will be satisfied. Passes and Skeds that have come due are displayed...
... I did. ... Used the keyer, rig cotrol and the super lookup. ... 1.25 GHz G4 Mac mini w/ 256 MB RAM under OS X and 1.66 GHz core duo Intel Mac mini w/ 512...
