I don't have one of

Would this fill the

Should use Kenwood CAT protocol, same as Flex. USB-A to USB-A crossover cable from Flex USB to amp for amp following Flex TX freq.
I do not know if RF-Kit group has published the programming commands via Ethernet.

Hi Alan,
I was specifically thinking about mult-multi unlimited distributed systems. For example you have four stations on 10m CW, one each in the north south east and west of any given DXCC entity to take advantage of the different propagation but only one signal is allowed on the air at any time.
In teams I have done this with, people are using an internet chat to indicate that they have found a multiplier and ask others to stop txing whilst they work it, or have good propagation so request the "baton" to enable them to be the run station.
EA4TX has produced some hardware that allows you to take it one step further and used the TX inhibit to lock the tx out on stations any given band mode when another is transmitting. This allows stations to interleave QSOs such as?
The EA4TX system is about $200 per station, so too expensive to use 2-3 times a year!
I was wondering if every station was running NR?then (subject to all the radios being supported by NR) it could to tell when any given station was transmitting. If NR could communicate across the WAN then the instances at other stations could use a software or hardware GPIO TX-inhibit to lock their stations into RX only and ensure only one station was on the air at once.?
The hardware bit is easy -its just a GPIO pin being activated! I don't understand NR enough to know if instances talking across the internet is possible.
Hope that makes sense? I know what I mean ;)

SteppIR SDA 100 serial data
Anyone connect directly to a SteppIR SDA100 through the serial interface with a node-red flow?
Does the data out serial port send the displayed frequency even though no antenna is connected?
I seem to get the same data no matter what I change the freq display to show.
Also any help on converting ascii characters to HEX values would be appreciated.
Thanks, Gary

Re: Editing the azimuth map in the rotor flow
Santiago and Dave
Not sure if this is your problem, but I think the PST Rotor "Demand" position?is only broadcast when a new Demand is commanded from PST Rotor.? So, if you do anything to stop Node-Red, between PST rotor demands, there is no Demand position?shown since it was a "msg.payload".
I fixed that by putting the PST Rotor Demand into a "flow.demand" ?context variable.? That way the last PST rotor demand is in Node-Red Memory.
Then for the input to the graphical map, I used a change node with an inject node set to inject every 0.25 seconds to send the "flow.demand" variable to msg.payload then to the demand arrow?graphics.
Alan
Yes I am.
