[WT-support] Win-Test, Microham and WinKey

[Olof Lundberg]

Matthias,

I have also had the problem with reversed paddle wiring in a multiop contest
or special event situation but I don’t really want anyone to go in and
fiddle with the configurations so I have made up a couple of “paddle
inverter” cables that I ask the owners of such paddles to use.

The idea of ‘operator profiles’ is otherwise a good one and should then
encompass the ability to switch canned CW as well as DVK messages to suit
each op’s preferences.

Hello!

During WPX CW we used the Microham MK2R as one radio controller in our M/2 -
setup. CW was generated with the internal WinKey. Unfortunately, some of us
need different WinKey configurations for comfortable use of the paddle
(DL5RMH: reverse, DL6RAI: Iambic A, no dash/dot memory, DK4YJ: Iambic B,
dash/dot memory and so on...)

The WinKey config window in WinTest says that all WinKey confgurations
should be done in the Microham-Router if the WinKey is integrated in a
Microham Device. But the WinKey-configuration is grayed out in the router
while the port is opened by WinTest. So the only way we found is to disable
WinKey in the interface menue in WinTest, change into the router, do the
right settings, change back to WinTest and enable WinKey again. Not to easy
while running a contest :-)

Is there any other way to do this?

Just a dream I had: Different user profiles in the microham router or WinTes
which hold these settings. And those would be selected in the router or even
better with the OPON or LOGIN command from WinTest automatically...

73s,

Matthias, DK4YJ
