In article , says... Just curious...are there any HF radios that use a Palm or Pocket PC as the front-end user-interface? I'm surprised that no one has rigged up a Pixie or something to do this... There is a program out called CTR-817 for the PocketPC OS that controls the FT-817 transceiver. Do a Google search for that and you should find the site where it can be found (I don't have the URL handy right now). If you're talking about HF-only rigs, then I confess ignorance. Ditto for programs to control DC-to-daylight transceivers. _But_: If you have an Icom PCR-1000 (which covers HF, and on up to near daylight), there are a couple of programs for the Palm to control it. They worked just dandy on my Palm VIIx, and on the i705 that replaced it. It is truly unfortunate that they appear not to work on the Palm Tungsten series, which doesn't have the serial library built in. While there _are_ add-on serial libraries available, the ones I've tried don't appear to actually drive the Tungsten T-3's serial interface. It's _very_ disappointing, and I'm about to post to the PCR-1000 list about my problems. *sigh* -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail? |
