RTTY wave on SM-220 with TS-950SDX and KAM-XL	Reply
by HB9DHG on August 9, 2004	Mail this to a friend!
Hello and thanks to read this post. I'm having some problems to monitor the RTTY Wave/signal on my Station Monitor SM-220 with the Kenwood TS-950SDX and a Kantronics TNC (Kam XL). I've connected the rear cinch and the front V.INPUT and with those connections I can monitor the band frequency and my output transmission (SSB/CW), but: How I can check the RTTY output signal (wave) ? Where to take the Mark/Space on the Kantronics or even on the TS-950SDX ? Many thanks for any tip. My best 73 de HB9DHG Fulvio http://www.hb9dhg.ch

Here is the reply I received, although I'm not sure it answers your question. If this is the answer you were looking for, please let me know. I was under the impression that you wanted to monitor your -transmitted- signal? This reply tells you that your setup is not capable of monitoring for -received- signals on the band for tuning purposes. Good luck, -Web, KR4WM Hi This is a basic problem with any setup using the Kantronics or similar boxes. There is no dedicated mark / space output to drive a scope. Older TU's like the ST-6 had this feature. The KAM XL does not have this feature. When I asked the Kantronics guys what they did about this at the Dayton Hamfest 10 years ago their answer was: "We use a sound card program on a PC to tune with" . I did not think that was a good answer then and do not think it's a good answer today. However it is what most people do. Take Care! Bob Camp KB8TQ

Hi Bob, thanks for the answer. Yes, I've supposed this. But last question: Can I try to open the Kantronics KAM and take directly the MARK/SPACE Signal out of the TNC and connect directly to the V/H Input of the SM-220 ? Think Yes but not sure .... My best 73 de HB9DHG

Hi Web, I've missed to give you a BIG thanks for the answer! Let me know about my last question because wrongly written to Bob :-) and not directly to you! In any case thanks for your ham-friendly support. My best 73 de HB9DHG Fulvio http://www.hb9dhg.ch
