SoftRock 6.1 Configuration Question   Message List

Re: SoftRock 6.1 CW Configuration Question

Ok, Now I finally got everything to trigger properly and I can get power out
using the "tune" button, so I know that the softrock is working properly. The
difficulty is that I am not able to get the software to produce CW using the
key. I have the key configured so that it connects CTS and RTS when pressed.
This will switch the SR into Transmit, but does not produce a tone. I am
operating 12 KHz away from the center Frequency (7042.5 KHz with a center of
7056 KHz). As indicated above if I press the tune button, then it does produce
a tone and power out.

I suspect that I have something set wrong in the software so that it is not
producing a tone when pressed. I have the side-tone set to 600Hz and am using
CWL.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
AF4PM

I'll check the divider to see what the voltages are, but at the moment it works with 12 V on the PTT-in and not with +5 from DTR. Thanks, AF4PM...
