[Kenwood] N4PY Control Program now works with Kenwood Radios

[Carl Moreschi]

My N4PY Pegasus/Jupiter Control Program has now been enhanced to
operate with several Kenwood transceivers and is available for general use.
This program has been very popular with TenTec users and Elecraft K2 users.

The supported Kenwood transceivers are

TS-850
TS-950
TS-570
TS-870
TS-480
TS-2000

Highlites of using the N4PY Control Program with a Kenwood radio are:

1) You can use any logging program that says it works with the TenTec
Pegasus.  All you have to do is configure the logging program for a
TenTec Pegasus and run my software along with the logging program.
Many logging programs use this interface.  A few popular logging
programs that are supported include WriteLog, DX4Win, LogEqf, WinEqf,
DXBase, and LOGGER.

2) You can use the Kenwood radio as the primary radio and an inexpensive
tentec rx320 receiver as a sub-receiver to get full DUAL receive for DX
split
operation.  The TS-950 already has a sub-receiver so the rx320 is not
needed with it.  The program will control both receivers in the TS-950.

3) You can do instant one click band hopping to any CW or SSB band.
There are separate band buttons for CW and SSB on each band.

4) All mode, filter, and frequency settings are remembered as you leave a
band segment so they can be fully restored when you return to that band
segment.

5) Full CW Keyboard Keyer available.  There is no keying interface required
to key the radio.  It is keyed via serial commands over the serial port.

6) You can still operate the radio from the radio front panel or the program
interface.

7) The program automatically picks up manual entry changes to the radio
front panel.

8) There is a spectrum sweep that will give you a picture of the band
for checking band openings or to just see how busy a band is.  You can
directly click on this spectrum picture to instantly move the radio to that
frequency.

9) You have unlimited memories with the program's internal memory
window.


These are just some of the reasons to use my software with your Kenwood
radio.  You can look at the N4PY Pegasus program screen shot and manual
at my webpage for more information.
