Two control pin is available, PTT output for keying the radio and KEY output used in CW mode. KEY pin can be use to press PTT of FM radio for CW only beacon or for key input of radio. Anyway the PSK31 tone is at 1khz and CW dot and dah use the same audio tone at 1khz. This beacon can be programmed via serial port at 9600 bauds, beacon can combine PSK31 and CW transmission or just CW. Delay between transmission can be adjust from 0 to 255 seconds. I have created a Visual Basic application to program beacon, more on this later.</div> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" >This is </FONT><A HREF="https://members.tripod.com/ve2yag/file/shematic.gif" TARGET="_top" TITLE="https://members.tripod.com/ve2yag/file/sh"><U>shematic</U></A> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" >Version 1.0,  have noted small harmonic at 2khz, maybe need some additional filtering.</FONT></div> <div> This is <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0033FF" FACE="Arial" ><A HREF="https://members.tripod.com/ve2yag/file/pcb.gif" TARGET="_top" TITLE="https://members.tripod.com/ve2yag/file/pc"><U>PCB</U></A></FONT> at 300dpi, Version 1.0 without any audio level ajust and filtering.</div> <bR> <div> <B><U>Programming the beacon:</U></b></div> <div> Open serial port terminal at 9600 baud 1N8, no handshaking.
