Oh dear, solutions over solutions but just one problem! Help! :-)

Well, there are 3 PCs running for VLF/LF/MF 24/7/365. One PC is just for transmitting on LF/VLF. That one will generate the permanent tone, nothing else. The only and most important thing is that this PC generates no phase glitch. The second PC will generate the tone for the VOX. It offers a headphone jack on a front panel in the shack which i use for MF CW. It's already decoupled by a AF isolating transformer. Here the VOX circuit will be connected...

Hello Markus, Stefan, and the group,

One channel sends a continuous uninterrupted 17.94 kHz tone to the divider, the other channel conveys modulated Opera at an arbitrary frequency to a VOX rectifier.

Indeed, this option is now selectable in SL by selecting 'Auxiliary output: unmodulated coherent carrier' on the digimode configuration screen. Details at

http://www.qsl.net/dl4yhf/speclab/digiterm.htm#adv_settings

I only checked it with ASK (amplitude shift keying) yet but it should work with PSK too. Would be an interesting experiment to send Opera-encoded bitstreams as binary PSK... :o) if we already had an optimized decoder for it.

The problem with very long commands (to send blocks of data through the digimode terminal), as noted by Stefan, has now been fixed. The string of "zeroes and ones" can be up to 1023 characters long now.

V2.79 b9 can be downloaded from
 http://dl4yhf.ssl7.com/speclab/install_speclab.zip

Please keep a copy of your 'working' version because not all of the new functions in SL have been properly tested yet, and there may be a couple of bugs lurking in less frequently used subroutines.

73,
