DXLab to Ham Radio Deluxe Bridge

 

The DXLab to Ham Radio Deluxe bridge  allows Ham Radio Deluxe to provide transceiver control for DXLab applications.   The Bridge  is free, and contains no advertising; commercial use is expressly forbidden.

With the Bridge running, the following scenarios are supported:

  1. DXKeeper obtains frequency and mode from Ham Radio Deluxe

  2. Double-clicking on a SpotCollector spot database entry QSY's the transceiver via Ham Radio Deluxe (split and dual-receive are currently not supported)

  3. PropView QSY's the transceiver to follow a specified beacon schedule via Ham Radio Deluxe

  4. WinWarbler uses Ham Radio Deluxe to determine transceiver frequency, to QSY to achieve an optimal offset, and to change mode when switching between PSK31 or PSK63, and RTTY (keying the transceiver is currently not supported)

To install the Bridge, download its zip archive and place the executable it contains in the folder of your choice. This executable will only run if you have installed a full release of at least one DXLab application.

You can start the Bridge, Ham Radio Deluxe, and your DXLab application(s) in any order. The Bridge maintains a small window that displays the current frequency and mode; this window also provides indicators when Ham Radio Deluxe is running, and when new entries have been placed in an Errorlog.txt file in the folder in which the Bridge resides. During normal operation, the Bridge's main window can be minimized; its primary purpose is to permit the Bridge to be terminated when desired.

If you have questions or suggestions, please send them via email to the DXLab reflector.
