cocoaModem 2.0 Changelog

What's new in cocoaModem 2.0 0.87

Jul 12, 2010
  • Added support in cocoaModem to use the p-FSK and q-CW functions in the digiKeyer II.
  • This allows you to use A1A keying (instead of J2A) in CW with a digiKeyer II by using its on-board q-CW function. When you select OOK : digiKEYER in the modulation menu of the CW interface's transmit configuration, cocoaModem will switch the keyer into the proper mode so that the on-off keyed (OOK) tones from cocoaModem gets converted into a hard keying signal in the digiKeyer II .
  • Please note that you should continue to use plain OOK if you are using a USB Interface III or the K4DSP regenerator for producing A1A keying signals. OOK : digiKEYER is only for use with a digiKEYER II.
  • Be sure to select the right stereo channel for the output sound card when you use the OOK modes with the digiKeyer II or with the USB Interface III. Select the corresponding channel of the sound card that a K4DSP regenerator is wired for.
  • Likewise, there is an OOK : digiKEYER menu item in the RTTY AFSK/FSK menus to drive the digiKEYER's p-FSK function. However, there is no practical advantage to use this instead of the direct FSK method (FSK : digiKeyer). Indeed, if you select direct FSK in the digiKeyer, you will not need to bother with setting the output sound card.
