[Elecraft] KI02 Interface software

Tue Jan 21 09:28:03 2003

I use TRX Manager for my Icom 756PRO and PRO2 and for my K2 -
identified to the program as a TS-570 (similar command set). I could
also use it on my IC-765 but haven't so far . . .

I know of no other program that works as well with as many features,
etc. Well worth the $69 fee to me. It also has an excellent
multi-memory keyer function.

There is  a new freeware program called K2S - I think - that does a
neat job of controlling the K2. Look back through the list archives
for the info - can't recall the author right now.

Yet another program that I use on the PROs and the K2 is MixW for
multiple digital modes plus CW and SSB, etc. It has outstanding macro
capabilities that allow you to control every aspect of the associated
radio for which you know the command set. Again the K2 plays like a
570. The keyer function of MixW is one of the few that allows true
dot/space weighting.
