CW Splits - vision for RIT/XIT coming in V1.1

Al_NN4ZZ

CW Splits - vision for RIT/XIT I'm currently working CW DX splits with 2 slices which works pretty well. Reference the snapshot. - listen to the DX on slice B - listen "up 1" and transmit on slice A (note: with DDUtil owning the FLEXContol knob I can adjust the slice A frequency even though it is not the active slice) What is the vision for the RIT/XIT user control enhancement that is coming in V1.1? Or is it too early for that yet? It seems like there are several ways this could be implemented. - will a single slice display be expanded to show RIT and XIT offsets - will a single slice display both the receive and transmit frequencies? - or will RIT/XIT link 2 slices so we can still listen to both the DX and the pile? - or is there something else planned? Also curious about how others are working splits today.... Regards, Al / NN4ZZ

One way is to use the Split feature in DDUtil v3. - Open 2 radio slices (A/B) In the DDUtil GUI (Misc window 2nd row right side) - Set a offset amount - Press the Split button Slice A is the receive slice Slice B is the transmit slice Toggling the Split button moves the TX from slice A<>B http://k5fr.com/DDUtilV3wiki/index.php?title=Misc

The RIT/XIT function is slice specific, so there will be a drop down menu on the slice control panel from the R/XIT menu. You will be able to change both RIT and XIT for that particular slice relative to the slice carrier frequency. BTW, I use two slices to operate split as you have described.

Thanks, TIM. RIT/XIT on the same slice will be very nice.

Tim, Ok, so it sounds like the single slice RIT/XIT will be good for simplex operation when you want to move your receive frequency slightly to compensate for the other guy drifting a bit, or to transmit slightly away from the crowd. And for DX splits when you want to listen to both frequencies at the same time the method I noted earlier is probably the way to go. Thanks, Al / NN4ZZ
