Global Hotkeys for common SmartSDR operations in FRStack

Mark_W3II

Until global hotkeys is a configurable feature in SmartSDR you can utilize FRStack to provide this functionality.

FRStack 1.4.3 allows you to create global hotkeys to

• Toggle the Radio's MOX and TUNE

• Invoke the ATU function

• Toggle the Lineout MUTE state and increase or decrease the Lineout Volume

• Toggle the active Slice's NB, NR or ANF state.

Mark. How does this connect? I ran it and it doesn't find my 6500. Nothing in tells in the help file.

Make sure you have a firewall exclusion for frstack.exe

My flex channel memories started acting up today where it would not change antennas like it has been, no matter what I tried. FRStack is the fix for me, it looks great and has many new features since I last used it, Mark thanks for your effort it is appreciated.

Has there been any thought of possibly creating memory banks or band edges and being able to scan all of the memories in a bank or between two band edges?  I use this feature in my other rigs a lot.

Sorry - can't find any other place to ask questions on FRSTACK! I installed it a couple days ago - with a 6700. Set it up - seemed to work fine ... shut everything down - powered up today and now FRSTACK won't start! Nothing happens when I double click on the icon. I've tried going to its folder and clicking on the exe - still nothing. I uninstalled and reinstalled - same thing. What gives?

FRStack may not be updated to the latest version of SSDR's Flex library yet. You'll have to wait for the author to update it and get the new version. James WD5GWY

I have a 6500 and 2 NIC cards. Sometimes I run the 6500 direct and FRstack never finds it. If I run the 6500 via the router I must disable the unused NIC card before FRstack will find the 6500.

The radio location logic is a function of the FlexAPI SDK. I will be updating FRStack for the latest release of SmartSDR / FlexAPI in the near future. Please contact me using the information on www.mkcmsoftware.com so I can root cause your issue before the next release.
