Set up the Flex-Radio Flex-5000A and MixW Software to do “Feld Hell,” the most common variety of Hellschreiber.
If you are not familiar with Hellschreiber, I’ve done a post explaining this interesting mode. You can find it at:
REPOST: Hellschreiber – The Modern/Historic Analog/Digital Mode
Again I have much more to configure, but the basic setup is sound!

Took a few minutes (would be quicker if I read the directions) to set up the Flex-5000A to use MixW and a neat internal interface called “VAC” (Virtual Audio cables) to set up the Flex-5000A for Digital Mode.
Here is a screen shot:
I’ve a ways to go to make this all work as I would like it to.
BTW with the speed of the new machine it looks like all my logs could be merged. I had avoided this on the old XP Box as it was easily overwhelmed whenever my logfile got big.
For details on the setup using MixW and VAC see the Knowledge Base and Manuals at Flex-Radio.

The MixW Add-Ons – MixWBuddy & MixWButton 8 - April - 2008

Peter Viscarola, K1PGV has created a collection of really useful add-ons for the popular MixW Digital Software Package.
MIXWBUDDY
MixWBuddy is a really neat set of Mode-Macros with an optional five user configurable Macro Buttons.
MIXW BUTTONS
MixWButtons is a fully user configurable table of User Macros, offering up to 100 additional Macros for MixW. Please notice these User Macros can control modes, just like MixW Buddy, but do require you to program in the script.
MIXW CALLBOOK DLL
MixW Callbook DLL is an interface to either a paid QRZ.com Callbook subscription or with the public pages.
Peter has created these under Microsoft’s .NET environment, so you will need to have that facility available & running on your machine.
In each case MixW is started first, then the K1PGV add-on.
I’ve covered my use of MixW in past posts, including:

I’ve had the pleasure of working Nick UT2UZ while using his software! (I’ve also worked Jim WA2VOS the USA dealer as well!)
A great package! Check it out!
