Welcome.  I'm yet another HAM, only a Canuck.  Marc, aka VE6MSP, from Alberta, Canada.  Straight north of a lot of you.  Welcome to the group.


Unfortunately, I'm only on 2m / 70cm, but I'm gonna learn my Morse, since Canada's going to drop that requirement soon, I wanna learn it.



Anywya, back to the DSL discussions, I haven't looked too hard, but I would like to acquire myself a satellite tracking program / dockapp, because my dad is really keen onto that, and uses my old PII 233 with MicroShaft Winbl0wz for his sat tracking.  If I get him a tracker on DSL, I can take my laptop back.

Hey Kent,

Don't have much HF eqipment left anymore only a 40 meter QRP rig that puts out about 2 watts. I have a nice Sangean reciever though. And then there's the fact that I have all but forgot my code skills. Hey mabe we could get DSL to key the transmitter.

I've got an Oak Hill Research "Kit" QRP rig that does 5 bands and up to 5 watts.

Perhaps you need a "code buddy" like me to help you brush up on your fist?

DSL keyed code? - the tls.dsl will work like any other dos keyer,
with the parallel port interface seen so often using TR-Log or NA ..

But you still have to - use your ear/work the code to receive. :)

Besides, how are you going to get a 20wpm fist if you use the keyboard ?

The loggers are great for mobile contesting and cw contests,
since your sending the same cq's and calls over and over.

Was at the Slashdot site and came across this bit of news about "Ham Radio Served as Main Link to Disaster Area".

It is good to know that a "hobby" can be a great tool in life & death situations and become a link to the outside world in times of need.Here's a link to the article.
