[Elecraft] W1 Programming???

[James Bennett]

Guys - thanks for the replies! I might have enough info to get started. That is, after the W1 gets here from Watsonville and I get it soldered together. I’ll be doing it in Xojo (based on Real Basic) and can port it to the Rpi and/or Linux should I ever got it working.

73 & thanks, Jim / W6JHB

I use a Mac and a Raspberry Pi and do not have VB on either, nor do I want to. I’m fairly proficient in several other programming languages and am thinking that I might “roll my own”, starting on the Mac.
