- AN AMATEUR RADIO CONTROL PACKAGE
- FOR THE TS-940S TRANSCEIVER
- AND MS-DOS COMPUTERS
-
- The files on this disk or in this archive (ZIP) file make up a package for
- remotely controling the Kenwood TS-940S amateur-radio transceiver. All
- frequency, mode, memory, and selectivity, and transmit/receive control is
- provided by the package. Computer-controlled scanning (both "memory" and
- "programmed") are supported. Digital communications provided for by the
- package are "duplex": changes made at the transmitter (site) are updated at the
- computer (site), and changes made by keyboard do, of course, control the
- transceiver, as completely as Kenwood has provided for.
