[CW] TEOAN - The Eye of a Needle

[David J. Ring, Jr.]

Jan,

I found this info on the RigExpert USB/Sound Card/Keyer documents page:
http://www.rigexpert.com/Documents.html

It is a system you can connect two computers together one with the radio 
connected via an interface, and the other a remote computer from which you 
can operate the radio - either on a local network, or internet connection.

TEOAN - The Eye of a Needle

MixW 2.12 and later versions offer a unique feature of connecting a PC with 
TEOAN program and MixW RigExpert plugged to a transceiver into a local area 
network.
Then, running MixW 2.12 on another computer on a network (or via high-speed 
internet connection) makes possible operating digital modes using that 
remote transceiver.

In the TEOAN program, set the virtual COM port number for MixW RigExpert and 
a TCP port number (the default value is OK in most cases).

In MixW2, choose "The Eye of a Needle" as an audio device. Enter an IP 
address or a name of the computer with TEOAN running, and the same TCP port 
value, like this:

Please make sure that the CAT port speed is set properly. See the TRCVR 
CAT/PTT dialog from Configure menu.

Note: the audio stream is not compressed, so no loss of quality is expected, 
but on the other hand the data rate is high, up to 0.4 Mbit/sec (RX or TX) 
or 0.8 Mbit/sec for TX in full duplex mode. Usual 10 Mbit LAN is good enough 
for this application, but slow modem connections will not be able to handle 
such a large stream of data.
The TEOAN program is located in the MixW directory. Copy TEOAN.EXE from the 
computer with MixW installed to the other computer (create a separate 
directory).
