I usually have the Packet Cluster Window off and the DATA port open looking
at RTTY etc.

Another small point, you do NOT have to be connected to utilize
the "packet window".

Thanks for the reply. To clarify however, there's a small "DX Cluster"
window (upper right) and then the "Packet Cluster" window.

If I sit down in the shack, turn on the 2m rig & tnc and then connect
to the local cluster there are NO spots in the "DX Cluster" window (yet).
So I type SH/DX in the "Packet Cluster" window to find out what the last
few spots have been while my packet gear was offline. In the XMLOG soft-
ware I was able to click in this window and QSY the radio too. I was just
curious if it could be done in LOGGER or not. I guess not !!! It's really
not a big deal to have to MANUALLY tune the rig for those first few spots
until the "DX Cluster" window starts listing the spots.

Did I understand that you don't even need to be connected for the "DX
Cluster" window to fill up with spots?


I really like this LOGGER program !!!

Well Steve, assumming the "packet window" you speak of is the
small display at the top right, Logger will do exactly what you
sayl put the call in the log window and set your radio right on
the spot.

Steve Logger will allow you to use the "DX Cluster" window to click and QSY
BUT that window only receives data for DX spots that occur AFTER you have
connected. So a Show/DX won't be of much help in that case. Stay connected
for a while or send a DX spot as a test and see what happens.

Yes Logger will pick up the packets and post them even if not connected BUT
unless you have a great path (I don't) it's risky since you're never sure if
ALL the packets are being received.

Yes, you definitely do not have to be connected to get spots in
the small window. Am trying to get Bob to extend the filter
capability to the Cluster window also. Remember, any filters you
set for packet are ONLY applicable to the small window.


BTW, Bob told me yesterday that he expects to release the first
version of Zanakaka ( or however it's spelled ) by the end of the
week.

Perhaps something to ease your minds in this particular case. The
packet code is set to look at the next spot which appears and
see if it is substantially equal to the last one. For example,
let's say you are monitoring a cluster with 20 people connected.
I put out a spot. That spot is then sent to the other 19
connections by the cluster. So, in essense, you have in this
example 19 chances of getting the spot. Just imagine the first 5
or so are missing some iformation. Since they do not represent
the proper protocal for packet, they are ignored. Let's say #8
comes through OK. You will see it displayed, and of course , #9
through ? are ignored. Of course, the odds of your getting the
packet under marginal conditions are a function of the number of
individuals connected to the node.

Hi Everyone. Glad I found this list, as th old Logger List was
apparently deleted without notice!

Welcome! Yes, the list manager for the old list just decided he had
enough and pulled the plug. He expressed that none of the old archives or
anything be revived or associated with him. He may profide info about
people who want to be on a list, but if each person goes through their old
emails and sends a notice to people who aren't over here yet, we will grow
again quickly.

Hi Fred,
Thanks for picking things up. Bob, K4CY, responded to an email of mine
regarding importing LogWindows to Logger and told me of the group's move. He
said someone here might know the whereabouts of any of the routines that
would convert my LogWindows logs to Logger. Can you (or anyone else) steer
me in the right direction for that? Thanks,

Terry, WØFM

I am trying to get my new 746 to read the frequency and band. I keep
getting the message "Radio Port: Transmit Buffer Full". Doesn't work
at all though it seems like it is trying. Please help!

Thanks!

WA5OJE

Perhaps LP1ZO, I believe that's his call will jump in, also you can try
http://ve9dx.weblink.nbtel.net/ and see if anything there will help you.
There are lots of conversions among the group.

Hi All,

I am attempting to find copies of older versions (any
other than 7.3) of
Logger. If anyone has them could you e-mail them to me
directly, or point
me in the direction of where they can be found..

I'm doing this in an attempt to convert Log files from
version 1.51 (DOS).
I have been unsuccessful in reading these logs with version
7.3.

Bob, if your reading.. Am I missing something on the DOS
import or are
version 1.51 logs to old for 7.3 to import??

Thanks!
Charlie....

thanks for the quick reply Fred.

Hi,

Usually there is problem that "Transceive" mode is set to ON in tcvr setup.
Check it and give "Transceive OFF".
I'm using IC-746 without any problems.

I have just purchased a new Pegasus from Ten Tec. I have installed some programs and am looking to find what would work well with the Pegasus. The programs I am looking at are Logger, ACLog1.5 and Digipan. I know Digipan is for PSK31 that I am very interested in trying. I also operate rtty, cw and voice. I am looking for someone that may already have the Pegasus in hopes of finding out what programs work hand in hand with the Pegasus control software. My computer is a HP 8590C 600 Mhz pentium III with 32 Gig hard drive, CD and DVD drives. I'm sure the computer is up to date enough to handle the software programs so the main issue is to find what programs work
well with the Ten Tec. Any help is well received and appreciated.

Thank you,

Brian NM3G

Only one way I know:

Use Telnet (in Logger) <> IZ4AFW Interface (SW - www.qsl.net/iz4afw) <>
SV2AGW (SW TNC - www.qsl.net/ok2wo). It works for DX Cluster
Monitoring/Connection (no file transfer is supported).

73 Josef

Dear Members

Is there any chance to use Logger together with Flexnet? In other words
with a software TNC!

Thanks for your responce in advance!

Could you explain what these are? I went to both of these pages and
wasted 30 minutes and have no idea what they are talking about. This is
not because I am not technical, it is because the pages are so poorly
organized and have no FAQ or simple explanation of what the products are
and what they do.

I take is SW in the first one means that Fabio has a software program that
does something? And SW TNC means that you don't need any hardware, there
is some program that emulates one?

If so, how is this any different from what Logger can do internally just
using a telnet connection to any of the net links? Thanks!

Sri Fred, these pages are not for education. It is simply crossover or
source of files/programs which you can use. You must download it, unzip and
read README and HELP files if you are not "in picture". Because the setting
of Flexnet is more complicated than AGW Packet Engine I supposed that you
are experienced user of that. Sorry for it. If you are beginner in Packet I
suggest - buy good TNC and use Logger Data terminal. It is simplest and
quickest way. Otherwise you must learn, learn, learn - as Lenin told before
90 years...

I take is SW in the first one means that Fabio has a software program that
does something? And SW TNC means that you don't need any hardware, there
is some program that emulates one?

Software by SV2AGW is "virtual TNC" which is working in computer memory
(just as Flexnet). It uses some serial port for connection with simple modem
(Baycom, YAM...) or KISS modem (any TNC which can be switched to KISS mode)
as well as soundcard. You must decide what hardware you will use. More about
Baycom modems or KISS mode you can find on appropriate pages. Read AGW
manual!

Software by IZ4AFW is a "bridge" or "pipe" for data transfer between SV2AGW
virtual TNC and Logger. Because it uses TCP/IP protocol you must use Telnet
terminal for connection with IZ4AFW interface. All is clearly described on
Fabio's WEB.

If so, how is this any different from what Logger can do internally just
using a telnet connection to any of the net links? Thanks!

In practice you must (if you want to use these programs) run all by this
order:
1. Run SV2AGW (stay resident in memory)
2. Run IZ4AFW (stay resident in memory)
3. Run Logger, than Telnet, than call local cluster node via IZ4AFW as
described in Fabio's page. Connect to cluster and use normal commands
(SH/DX...). Or (if no connection is checked in IZ4AFW) you Telnet will
connect to IZ4AFW and will monitor the traffic on your local node. DX spots
(DX de....) will be automatically transferred to Logger for your info.

I hope you are now more "IN". Very please, read manuals/helps first.

I did some error and message was not sent. Again: Jiri OK2WY focused
me to MOST IMPORTANT thing: If you have got this message your
interface is not powered. If it is powered from Com port it uses RTS
pin and in Logger the voltage is -9V on this pin. You must use DTR
pin for powering and add diode from DTR to +U point in your
interface. Also you can use external power from battery or P.S.U.
(not so like it :-( ). Look for my WEB page www.qsl.net/ok2wo where
is also info about ICOM interface.

73 Josef

Dear Josef

I will come back next week with more details. You are correct, these
software types are replacing the hardware TNC. Then only thing which is
necessary is a simple modem (Baycom connected to RS-232-Transceiver) or a
Soundcard and a small transistor circuit to drive the PTT switching.
Depending on the software it is possible to drive 1200b/s and/or 9600b/s)!
