In this way you can double the VFO on your radio at home, whatever model it is, with the remoted radio.<br \/>\nQSYing become more easy and natural than with Kenwood PC software, where you are obliged to use the mouse to any operation, even the simplest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We\u00a0can also connect locally or remotely\u00a0a logger program, in that way We\u00a0can take advantage of, for example, the cluster client of our favorite log program directly from home, where clicking on a spot on the home PC We will directly\u00a0tune\u00a0the\u00a0remote radio on the frequency of the\u00a0DX station.<br \/>\nThanks to AD Controller, antenna selection and rotator direction will be automated, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the moment this software (OR2LOG) is in test m<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-259 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/OR-Log_640-300x123.jpg\" alt=\"OR-Log_640\" width=\"300\" height=\"123\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/OR-Log_640-300x123.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/OR-Log_640-150x62.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/OR-Log_640-400x164.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/OR-Log_640.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>ode but its use\u00a0brings many benefits to the ease of use of the system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Next time I&#8217;ll talk about the DXE-RCA8B-SYS-4P remote control.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From some time I am participating in the development of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[44,45,43],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=257"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":266,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/257\/revisions\/266"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ik0vve.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
