K9OZ ham radio blog

I had a couple of good cw mobile contacts yesterday. Look for me on 40 cw all day today and Sunday.

Still trying to get the iPad to control the radio. I was hoping my next post would be a step by step description of how I did it, but still missing the last step. I can't get the audio to output a from the right port on the computer. Sometimes I wonder why I derive myself nuts with this stuff. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Ok, this is the first post I've tried to make by actually typing on the iPad. It works, but is going to take some getting used to the keyboard. The iPad is an interesting toy, and I've almost got it sete to where I can control a radio remotely and stream audio back to the iPad. I don't have the audio part working yet, but I'll figure out my mistake soon. This morning I made a nice QSO with Pete K4BKD, who I've talked to multiple times. It was a good saturday morning cw chat, we talked about weather, radio, dogs, radios, cars, and pollen counts, all at 25 words per minute using Morse code. Fun.

This morning I spent some time running the QRPARCI QSO party. I had a great time and remembered why I like qrp so much. More details tomorrow. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
