Subject: alinco Dr605t and the kantronics kpc3+
Hi there.. I have been trying (in Vain) to get my packet system up and
running... I have a kantronics KPC3+ tnc and an alinco dr605t mobile
rig...
I have followed the wiring diagrams that came with the kpc3 and the
alinco and as far as I can tell it is hooked up right... however when
I plug the mick jack into the radio (the mic jack that is on the end
of the tnc cable) it keys the mic port... I have no idea what is
wrong...
would you know of a solution or wher I might be able to find the
wiring diagram fro the kpc3+ to alinco dr605t thansk for any and all
help..

Au contraire - several members of this NG have been extremely helpful.
Maybe the problem lies not with the group......

Walt, after the new year guests had departed I found a scotch bottle
not yet empty. As an admirer of the way our northern neighbours
manage such affairs I felt obliged to do it justice. But, no, I
didn't time sunrise. Even if I stand on the chimney (lumb) there's
high ground to block the view. And if I had timed it, for reasons
stated elsewhere, it would have been of little interest. 160m was
dead anyway.
- - and the same to you Walt !

Gary,
No doubt you will wish to be reminded - it is not the time and
direction of sunrise as experienced at ground level at the ends of
the radio path which affect ionospheric propagation, it is the time
and direction as experienced by the ionosphere itself, perhaps at
distances of 1500 Km from the path ends, at heights between 70 and
450 Km.
Terrestrial lighting-up times in Bristol, etc, are not of much use in
this connection.
Try not to take things so seriously in this new year. All the very
best to you and yours.

For around ten quid available WH Smiths a CD ROM
by EXPERT software "Astronomer"
Be careful that you DON'T by ASTROLOGER by mistake.
I've been running Astronomer for about two years now and have an Icon for it
on the Quick_Launch tool bar.
An excellent program worth the effort to learn how to drive properly.
You can set up any display of the stars /planets Sun etc. and save it
so that it is instantly available for you Latitude and Longitude.
With just about any sky view that you want to show.
A very good ten quids worth.

Thankfully Reg Edwards does not speak for the news group
And never will
The fact that his ignorance extends to the point where he is unaware of the
solar effects upon propagation being only one reason for his exclusion.
There are many other reasons.
Mainly he does not think before engaging his keyboard.
