Re: [Knightsqrss] Argo V1 build 137
Guys
I had no problems running this new version on my Win7 laptop, but on my
WinXP pro PC the same program closes itself down whenever I press the
START button...
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Jens

Re: [Knightsqrss] Argo V1 build 137
I used WinRAR, a freebie download, right click the file, choose "extract",
done in a few seconds.

Colin,
Thanks for this. I have been meaning to try it out. But I cannot extract
files from archives with a .rar extension using Windows 7. What tool did
you use.

Re: KD8DVY QRSS Beacon
OM,
Thats brilliant. I think you will be the first person to put a QRSS beacon
from one of our kits aloft. I'll be very interested to find out what the
results are.

Keyer Speed
GD all,
My last post was about power and alignment well I have that covered now it's time to set the keyer speed. I was able to find a 11 position rotatory switch that I will like to experiment with.
