N1MM Logger Spectrum Monitor Display Win 10 Pro Icom 7300 One USB Cable! 

Hi A-Ray, Nice to hear from you and thank you so much for the comment. I am happy it helped. Looks like (QRZ,com) you and your son are having a great time hiking! My kids loved it too when they were young. Best 73, - Rich, K0PIR

Good to hear from you Ryan and thank you for commenting. GL, Good DX and best 73!

Hi Asdrubal, Thank you so much for commenting, I appreciate it. I think the 7300 is the best. It changed Ham radio for us guys who like the knobs and like working digital modes. It's great fun to learn and use. Congrats and thank you again, best 73 - Rich, K0PIR.us

Hi Larry, nice to hear from you again and thank you for commenting. I really appreciate the feedback. Best to you and yours this holiday season, 73 - Rich, K0PIR.us

Ron J Nice to hear from you and I hope all is well where you are. Thank you so much for commenting, Best 73!

Thank for for the nice comment!

It's nice to hear from you and thank you for commenting. It is well worth the effort. I have a new computer with Win10 I'll be setting it up on. I'll do another video on this. Thanks and 73!

Best 73 and good DX!

Joe Chmelik hi and thank you for commenting here. In this video I use the USB cable and it plugs into the USB port on the rear of the radio. The remote port, the one that you were referring to, on the back of the radio is used with a CI-V cable. In this video the way that I am using N1MM logger with the USB cable I will not be able to do FSK. To do FSK will require a virtual serial port emulator. I have used VSPE and have a video on it. Getting back to the CI-V cable, normally I use the CI-V cable for rig control and the USB cable for FSK keying. We don’t get the N1MM spectrum scope doing it this way, so there is that trade off. Have you tried a different USB cable and a different physical USB port on you computer? I had a USB cable at one time that I could not get to work. Has your USB connection ever worked? I have had two people recently tell me their USB port on the radio went out and it could have been from an electrical surge or storm that caused it. You can send me an email, I’m good on QRZ.com. 73!

@@HamRadioAdventures I've tried several combinations to get the two cable scenario to work WITH the N1MM Waterfall running. It seems the N1MM Waterfall 115,200 Baud rate requirement is the hurdle that can not be resolved with the two cable scenario. The only way I've found to get MMTTY, for FSK RTTY, and the Waterfall running is to use VSPE. Have you found a combination that works for two cable operation AND the N1MM Waterfall; to avoid the VSPE software solution ?

@@cache4pat Hi Patrick, no that the only way, using VSPE. If you have the Icom 7610 it is a bit easier. I set mine up using the CI-V cable for rig control and the USB cable for keying. I don't get the spectrum display, but that okay I use the scope on the radio, not as good if you are searching and pouncing, but okay. Thanks and good DX! 73 de K0PIR

kathnrich1 Nice to hear from you and I hope all is well where you are. Yes it will, the radio follows the software and the software will follow the radio. Best 73!

Hello and thanks for commenting here. I will do a video on that but for now you just need to tell it what program you are using for PSK. I use Fldigi. Go into Configuration and look for the Digital Modes tab.

Hello and thank you for commenting here and thank you for watching my videos. When I get home I'm going to get that program and start doing videos on it. If you are using the Icom 7300 you'll need to use either twocables or something like virtual serial ports emulator. You'll need that extra port for FSK keying. Have a look at this page it may help www.k0pir.us/icom-7300-rtty-fsk-mmtty/ best 73 from Tucson Arizona!

@@HamRadioAdventures Well..... Around 4 AM this morning I finally figured it out. I will keep this as short as I can but if you need more details, let me know. I am using the "remote" port on the radio to interface to other programs for CI-V rig control and that is working fine. The WIN4ICOM program has a mapping function that (Using the com0com free utility) will map the Icom USB port to a max of six other ports.The problem is that WIN4ICOM doesn't pass the RS-232 flow control signals to these mapped ports. Therein lies the problem! If the external program that you are trying to use needs these signals as MMTTY does, we are out of luck. SOOOO... You are right, I installed 'VIRTUAL SERIAL PORT ELIMINATOR' which DOES pass the control signals and created a Splitter device that connects to my ICOM USB port. This fans out to several virtual ports for me to use as needed including the WIN4ICOM app.. I went ahead and purchased it for the $25.00 which, in my opinion, was a bargain. Now I have it configured to run at startup and all is good. MMTTY took less that five minutes to configure and get running with FSK. For anyone reading this and asking "Why not just use AFSK?". Several reasons... The main one is that you can't use the RTTY filters if not in RTTY mode on the rig. Looking forward to more of your videos on the 7300. GREAT job and thank you again. John WR0J

J Gratton Thank you for providing that information. Glad you got it working and I am going to look into that program when I get back home. Best 73 from Lordsburg New Mexico

Mel Ming Hi and nice to hear from you thank you for commenting. No, the USB cable needs to be used for rig control if you want the Spectrum monitor in N1MM. I normally don't use the Spectrum monitor in N1MM in RTTY contest. I choose to use the one on the radio. Thank you again and hope to hear you on the air. 73 Rich, K0PIR.US

In that video, I have DX Spider running on a Raspberry Pi in my home. It has been working good for more than a year and it connects to three or four other nodes. Others I use are K1TTT and K3LR. 73, Rich, K0PIR

Hi Jeff, nice to hear from you. This is how I do it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LOKgYZCWri0.html You may need a second cable for what you want. Just use a CI-V cable with WSJT-X. 73!

Nice to hear from you mannes. You can use two cables or something like VSPE to split the com port. Talk to Jeffery on this facebook page. He is knowledgeable about RS-BA1 facebook.com/groups/RadioElmer/ 73!

Hi and thanks for coming by. Using the N1MM Spectrum Monitor is the easiest way to get it going. I also like that when using a cluster N1MM will display the calls in the spectrum monitor. This is on adding the RX7300: www.k0pir.us/installing-inrad-rx7300/ and then of course you would need to add an external sdr and then load the drivers and get HDSDR going. Some other paid software that I hear is very nice is ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mVVm5KambB0.html Lots of good things are being said about that software. I have not tried it yet. 73, Rich, K0PIR

Hi John, Great question and it's nice to hear from you. On the N1MM menu, go to Window and Telnet. When Telnet opens up, click on the Clusters tab. There's a drop down list. Choose one from the list. 73, Rich, K0PIR

Thanks Rich .M6NQW

Thanks for commenting here. It could be RTS either in the radio or in your software. If your radio is setup like mine, check N1MM Config>Configure Ports>Hardware. Click on the Set button next to your Port and Radio. See if RTS 9pin 7) is on. Mine is set to Always Off. If that doesn't do it you can probably turn it off in the radio. Menu>Set Connectors>USB SEND/Keying. Put USB SEND to Off. See if either of those will do it for you. 73!

Hi Dennis, Nice to hear from you. It doesn't look like it is supported. See: n1mm.hamdocs.com/tiki-index.php?page=Spectrum+Display+Window#Supported_Radios_REAL_AMP_Interfaces Thanks for commenting and watching, I hope to hear you on the air someday. Best 73 - Rich, K0PIR

Thanks for the heads up Dino and thank you for commenting. I guess I forgot the link. Here is the link to the supplemental post: www.k0pir.us/n1mm-logger-spectrum-monitor/ Just a regular USB A to USB B computer cable like we use for printers. Best 73!
