[1000mp] Key Click mod

[Tom Lewis]

Thanks Bob,

Great to know about the DXBase software interface.  I also have DXBase but
have to admit I don't use it to its full capacity.  Maybe this would be a
good opportunity to start.  I've been looking at the RIGBlaster and as you
know it's a great deal more money.  Why spend the extra money if the RASCAL
will work just as well.  I also saw on BUXCOMM that they also have a version
that will work with USB ports.  This is perfect for me because the laptop
only has USB.  It was a bear finding the right adapter for the Kam XL.  So
thanks for everyone's replies.  Great List.

The software was HamScope, which MMTTY software to work RTTY, but I had been
told to download the latest version of MMTTY and copy it over the version
that came with Hamscope because it was a newer version.  I worked RTTY and
PSK.  Used it a few times to copy some high speed CW.

Hamscope interfaces with DXBase, my logging program, and June last year I
played in a RTTY contest (I don't do contest).  There are a possible 45
macros and I programmed 3 or 4 of them.  With about 3 or 4 clicks of the
mouse I had called the station, worked them and had them logged.  It was
fun.  Will probably do it again sometime.

No VHF, only HF.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for the reply.  What software are you using?  What modes are you
using?  Do you use the Rascal on both VHF and HF?  I notice that bux also
has cables for the two meter stuff as well as the hf.

I'm using the Rascal.  If you get the cable for your rig it plugs altogether
and works FB.  I need a Y connector for Line Out, since I have speakers
plugged in, but that was a short trip to Radio Shack.  From the time I got
it and had things running was less than 10 minutes.

I'm considering using some sort of sound card interface with my laptop to
the Mark V.  I've been using the Kam Plus with good success however I would
like to eliminate all the extra wires and boxes.  Seems like there are a lot
of options out there and would be interested in your experiences.  Bux.com
advertises something called the Rascal.  If you are using such a setup I
would be interested in your experiences.
