N1MM Logger+ Update 1.0.9429 (February 1, 2022)

W0AMT

An update to N1MM Logger + was released on February 1, 2022. This update added a feature that is of interest to the FlexRadio community.

"added capability to connect to a radio using TCP, rather than a COM port. Select "TCP" for the port and enter the TCP/IP address and IP port in the Configurer. This has been tested with using the Mac version of SmartSDR(Flex), and with an Elecraft K4. "

I tried setting the IP address of the radio from the Settings | Radio Setup | Network tab but that didn't work. I tried 127.0.0.1:5002 which is the setting in WSJT-X but that didn't work either.

Any ideas what IP address and port I should be using?

Thanks and 73

Jon,

This feature in N1MM+ is designed to interact with CAT commands over TCP. Your second guess is a TCP CAT port defined in SSDR CAT and that's the right one to use.

Unfortunately, all of the kinks have not been worked out of the N1MM+ implementation just yet. I've reported the bug to the N1MM+ developer and have been answering questions and giving access to my radio. They seem very interested in getting this fixed.

Jon,

For your testing with 127.0.0.1:5002, make sure that SSDR CAT is running and that WSJT-x (or anything else) is using that port. I've noticed that sometimes it does work with N1MM+. The problem I am seeing is that it doesnt always work or doesnt keep working.

Thanks, I'll keep checking as N1MM updates are released.
