Re: UL3S transmits continuously in RUN mode
|
I do not want that much downtime.? During 10 meter E-skip conditions propagation can come and go several times in a minute and it decreases the value of having a propagation beacon in the first place.? What I want is 1 - 3 minutes and 50 seconds of CW churning away at about 15 WPM and then at most 10 seconds of calibration.? With a TCXO it surely doesn't need more calibration time than that.? But I still don't grasp the relationships between Frame length, starting time, GPS calibration time, GPS step size, CW speed, and CW message length well enough to make it all work together like I want. It appears to be a complex relationship.? I don't understand how It can work at say 13 WPM but when I increase the speed to 15 WPM without increasing the message length it fails.? I just spent several hours of trial and error and have not been able to figure it out.? I'm just about ready to hook up my Arduino keyer externally instead but I hate to lose GPS frequency sync capability.??
Thanks, Jerry- AC5JM

Progress.?
You also have to take into account the calibration time. If you were to set the calibration parameters to say, 10 060 and frame 02 start 02 it should transmit for your 40 second, calibrate for 1 minute then idle for 20 seconds before repeating.?
Once you understand these 2 menus the rest is easy.?
