[DXBase] TS-850 and RIGBLASTER PLUS sending CW

Mon, 2 Dec 2002 19:39:06 -0500

Sean,
Listed below is an extract from the DXbase Help File that was installed on
your machine when DXbase was installed. You can access it from the Help
menu item in DXbase 2003, or directly from the DXbase program group. The
listing below was taken from the section called CW Interface, CW Keying
Circuit.
This schematic illustrates a simple keying circuit that can be constructed
for use with the internal DXbase CW interface. This is the same circuit
that is used in many of the contest programs around. DXbase allows you to
use the same serial port for CW that is used for your TNC or HF radio
provided it does not use the DTR leads. Some TNCs do use the DTR leads, so
we recommend that you check your TNC and/or HF radio specifications to
determine its suitability for sharing the leads. If necessary, you may need
to use the CW keying circuit on its own serial or parallel port. To install
this circuit, run the leads out of the RS232 connector and connect the
circuit as shown below. You may place the components inside the RS232 shell
cover.

>> Jack,
>> the rigblaster plus is almost the same as the rigblaster. it is a
interface for using keying to the radio and sending sound to it. though
there is in the plus the keying is done direct. with sime switching diode or
something I forget. All I need to know is dxbase sending cw via sound wav
files or is it keying the keyer via switching. and if so is it using the
regualr dtr/dts signalling or what ever I have never got this to work ever.
