Subject: [PVRCNC] Virtual/real com port link software
Message-ID: <5133D1EE.9010301@nc.rr.com>

Guys,

Anybody have some free WIN-XP compatible software that creates a virtual 
serial port and allows that port to link to a real com port?
KISS.  From what I've seen present generation software gets really 
complicated fast-- wanting to do it via telnet/servers/geek methods.

I used to have VSPE that allowed me to link a real com port to a virtual 
port.  Removed it some time ago.  The virtual port is then used with 
LPBRIDGE to allow multiple things to communicate with the K3.

Unfortunately the makers of VSPE now are charging $100 per version.  It 
used to be free.  Thank you WIN8.

I'm working on a K3 "button box" that allows changing bands, mode, split 
and a bunch more with a remote box and outputs RS232 level commands to 
do it.  It does indeed work OK.  I have to get over this last hurtle.

Guys,

After some digging, I found my version VSPE on an archive.

Was able to link my K3 button box to LBRIDGE/K3 OK via one real and one 
virtual serial port.

Now waiting for a 4x4 keypad to arrive to "button" it up.

All 20 buttons are programmable so there is enough functionality to do lots.

Greetings carbon based units of planet earth.

With monotonous regularity, it is once again time for carbon based units 
associated with the "Potomac Valley Radio Club" NC East chapter to 
aggregate in a synchronous manner for discussions of a likely random 
nature generally related to electromagnetic irradiation and associated 
perceptions and chronometric quantification's thereof.

All like minded carbon based units are encouraged to center their 
corporeal presences on Thursday March 7th at time and earthly 
coordinates as specified on chapter communication media created by ones 
and zeros synchronously de-randomized and cohered at:

Any carbon based units currently covertly connected to the home computer 
of carbon based unit K4QPL and illicitly irradiating as "K4PQL" are 
requested to cease and desist.

For those of you who are not on the main PVRC email list (or if you missed
this email from Frank W3LPL), PVRC has run up a budget deficit.  Let me add
my call to Frank?s (below).  Most of us (myself included) enjoy great
benefits and pay next to nothing for them.  If you find our club to be as
valuable as I do, please show your support with your $ to keep us healthy
and focused on radio!

The web page at www.pvrc.org has a big ?Donate? button on it that will let
you use Paypal to contribute.  You don?t even need to be signed up with
Paypal ? if you poke around after pressing the Donate button, you?ll see a
way to use your credit card.

Thanks for helping this to be a fantastic community of contesters!

73,
   Rob K4OV

Friends,

I was surprised to learn of PVRC's serious financial deficit in 2012.

Through the considerable efforts of our members and leadership we've become
one of the world's foremost contesting clubs.  We need only modest financial
resources to keep maintain PVRC's programs, but one dollar per member simply
cannot support our world class club and its many deserving activities.

We definitely do not want to burden our treasurer with the thankless chore
of dues collection.  I've been there and we definitely don't want to go
back.

I hope many of you -- like me -- will make a generous donation to PVRC
today.   Its very easy to make a PayPal donation to dave at wr3l.net

Thanks!

73

LOL!

This carbon based unit will report on a 10 county mobile expedition during 
NCQP. Unfortunately, I couldn't round up a second at the last minute to 
drive the car so I could operate mobile safely and effectively handle the 
pileups. Parking to operate negatively affects rate. Problem solved for next 
year:

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J17Qgc4a8xY

Actually, the plan is to combine remote technology and send the car--and the 
radio--to cover even more counties. One last problem still remains to be 
solved--avoiding K4PQL busted calls!

73,

Jim

Hi Kent -
Any logging program that is worthwhile would not venture to identify
countries internally. Instead,  it reads a dynamic file like cty.dat

In the case of HRD, google indicates it is DX ATLAS.

So you either need to update it or edit it.
google indicates http://dxatlas.com

I don't know if everyone is following the discussions about the Single
Operator and Assisted Categories merger such as noted below, but I wanted
to encourage all active PVRC-NC contesters to participate in the Contest
Committee survey.  Plus, there is a related survey question on the
Contesting.com web page.  I do not have a link to the Contest Committee
survey since I deleted the original note. So, hopefully everyone received
their own invitation to vote.

Please VOTE!

And just so you know where I stand - I want the Single Op category to stay
as-is - the purest form of radiosport, where it is the operator, his
radio(s), and antennas against the propagation gods!

Henry - K4TMC

Here is a copy of the survey email with a link to the site where the survey
is hosted.

There's a lot more to it than combining  single op categories. I recommend
everyone put in your 2 cents worth. There are a number of places you can
put in long winded comments. So  I did. I saved copies of some of them and
would to generate a few discussions here later.

Club,

My never ending itch to play with different radios is acting up. Anyone have a rig for sale in the $400 to $800 range? I?m interested in just about anything.
