I now have PC boards for the HW-101 Direct Digital Synthesis(DDS) system which I designed to replace the VFO in my old HW-101. Although designed specifically for the HW-101, Paul, AD3G has put the board into his Drake TR7 and he reports that it works great. Read more by clicking Projects.


If you have a Ten Tec OMNI VI, you can now operate remotely via the internet. A special Key-n-Log GUI version and also a special firmware version are now available which together have the capablility to remotely control the Ten Tec OMNI VI transceiver via the internet. These include support for serial communication with the Ten Tec OMNI VI Transceiver, remote tuning and station on.off control. Read more by clicking Projects.

Key-n-Log now includes a feature called Buddy List. A Buddy List is a file containing groups of Call/Operator combinations. Each time a call is entered for logging, the Buddy List is checked to see if it contains the call. If the list does contain the call then you (the operator) are alerted and provided with the operator name and the associated group name. A buddy list may contain up to 10 groups and any number of Call/Operator combinations. The program contains provision to create and edit a Buddy List within Key-n-Log.

Key-n-Log can now reference "HisCall", that is, the text entered into the "CALL" box.

The QST article on the SMART Keyboard appeared in the July 2007 issue. (You may view it by clicking here.)

SMART Key-n-Log has LoTW and ADIF support, allowing you to easily take advantage of Logbook of the World. This is neat stuff and I urge you to begin logging with Key-n-Log.
