While this worked right away I found the design to be to unflexible. The slider switch on the microphone’s back side was used to switch the mic’s FST button between transceiver and the PIC microcontroller. The prototype was designed to be an exact replacement so you could simply put it into the microphone, plug in the mic cord and attach it to a Yaesu transceiver and be done. The picture on the right shows the comparison between the original MH-31 PCB left and the first prototype PCB right while above left you can see the final PCB. Basically it is nothing else than the SBVK but with a few design changes concerning how the ISD 1760 voice chip is controlled (using the SPI interface) and how audio is transferred to the transceiver. So I could develop a replacement PCB containing all needed components for a voice keyer. And no additional weight as the used components weigh less than the original innards of the used microphone.Ĭhecking standard transceiver microphones available today I quickly discovered that the Yaesu MH-31 hand mic would be an ideal candidate for this project as it’s few components are soldered on a PCB that can be taken out. These where the reasons why I decided to develop something entirely new and not available on the market yet – a voice keyer completely integrated into a standard fist microphone! So no additional box as you need the microphone anyway. Even for home use some might prefer not to have an additional external box that needs to be wired and takes up precious space on the operating desk. But what to use when go hiking or being mobile? Due to weight (hiking) or security (mobile) reasons an external box is probably not the right solution.

Especially the FA station manager with it’s 4 voice memories, built-in CW keyer and sequencer is a versatile tool but rather designed to be a fixed or table portable station accessory. The SBVK and FA-SM solutions featured on this website are good solutions to full-fill that task. Therefor many seek for external solutions. There are not many transceivers having such a nice feature built-in. Polish Youtube video presentation by SQ6NEJ.

See Menu–>Transceiver–>Save/Load TTRX setup. If you are changing your station setup frequently, you can store and recall multiple transceiver settings for transceiver #1 and #2. Reading and writing CW memories within the transceiver and the use of an internal CW keyer applies to the active transceiver only, if applicable.

K3/KX3 control window is only available for transceiver #1.

microHAM devices work with transceiver #1 only.

If you activate the option Auto toggle it will switch the active transceiver whenever frequency changes. The active transceiver is indicated by a green dot. Here you can select the transceiver to use. When you have configured two transceivers in the preferences, the controls will become visible when you widen the logging window. The mode shown by RUMlog always follows the frequency edges that were defined in Preferences–>QRGs! Use of Two Transceivers The operating mode is not read from the radio.

double click in the Frequency column of the DX Spot or DX Station alarm window.

enter a frequency (in kHz) into the callsign entry field followed by an Enter.

You can change the tuned frequency of the transceiver in several ways: The frequency value is also used by the band map: Menu–>Window–>Band Map RUMlog –> Transceiver Turn it off to manually override the mode or frequency. If the option Follow TRX is on, the current frequency and the operating mode will show in the logging fields. There are further, advanced features provided for the IC-7300, IC-7610, IC-9700, Elecraft K3, KX2 and KX3.

use of transceiver’s internal CW memories.

RUMlog can control most of the available transceivers using Flrig! Depending on the model, you have the following options: If you are able to help out with other models, please contact me. The list of supported transceivers is quite short right now. RUMlog can also be connected as a client to flrig. External applications can control your transceivers via RUMlog using a built-in DXLab Suite Commander server.
