Subject: Re: [aprssig] Inexpensive Deviation Meter - Wrapup
Thanks to all who provided suggestions on my deviation-setting question.
The MFJ-52 board that I had in mind is no longer available. At $30 it was
in the right price range.
The MFJ-224 was a lot more meter than I really needed and the $170 was out
of the price range that I wanted to pay.
The setting by ear had the right price tag and I may try it later.
Someone mentioned tapping off the IF string of a receiver. That rang a
bell for me. One of my rigs is an Icom IC-251A and it has an RCA jack on
the back labelled Scope. I checked the block diagram and this output taps
off the IF through a buffer amplifier. I have a 35 MHz scope so I should
be able to use this just fine.
Thanks again. I appreciate all the help so graciously offered.
73,
Jim

Yes the OpenTracker2 being completed by Scott N1VG, references:
http://www.ei7ig.org/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tracker2/
looks like a very reasonable cost (estimated target about $70.00 US)
replacement for other stand alone TNC's and does a lot more than most of
them! It will support the NEWn-N Paradigm (in which RELAY and TRACEn-N are
not supported) far more strictly than is possible with UIView32 and
existing TNC's (UIDIGI) and KPC3's. I will be using these once my spares
are exhausted of used MFJ1270C's, which won't be long I fear.
