Pass spot to second VFO

Post by F5JSD »

Hi Colin,

My radio is an Orion 2.
Can you please give me your feedback on :

a.. what I believe is a bug.
When I right click on a spot, the message says "return Rig to previous frequency :(0)" and when I click OK, nothing happens.In RCW the VFO A/B button is greyed and sub VFO frequency is 000, I guess WL32 may not read this frequency.

b.. Is it possible to CTRL+left-click a spot to send it to VFO B instead of VFO A?
This feature is extremelly useful of course in contest (not the purpose of WL32), but also when chasing DX to listen another DX in second VFO when busy working a station on VFO A.

As usual, not critical, so when you have time :-)

Hi Pascal

a. Click to return to previous freq, does not seem to be working correctly on the Orion RCW, I will look into that.

b VFO B, I will have to dig out the programmers reference for the Orion rig control to see what is involved for VFO B, some rig type protocol do not make it so simple to manipulate VFOs, this was surely the reason that VFO B was not supported in Winlog32's Orion RCW.
