Monte Giovanni TK/TK-031
WWlocator : JN42na80
Altitude : 1950 m - altitude gain +350 m - distance 10km
50 QSO 20 m CW 1 S2S +1 DX
Nice snowshoeing in a beautiful deep powder in some places.
Installation of the antenna mast a bit complicated by the snow and the frozen ground. I will have to find a simpler solution than the half-wave anenna which is too long in these conditions.
Having some GSM network on site, I was able to send a spot and make a call on 14.062 MHz. A nice pile-up followed and I did not move frequency until I had contacted 50 stations in 37 min.

A newer and mature version with more options has been published. An EXE file is available.
While setting up my remote station, I quickly have been confronted to the problem of the limitations of the remote ease of use. The first one is the ability to change the VFO frequencies. My logging software LOGGER32 offers a lot of macros and an option to use the mouse wheel to change the frequencies. But during daily traffic or contesting they quickly have shown their limitations.
On Twitter, I have seen that several hams have been using a small DJ controller for driving SDR receivers and transceivers. So I started thinking to do the same for the TS590s.

For one of my projects, I recently bought on Aliexpress (see links at end of article) a Chinese fan speed controller board.
I was struggling to understand how this board can be set, the instructions found on Aliexpress being nearly of no help. The Chinese to English translation is.... :-)
Here is what I found ...
