I cannot get KNS to work
over the Internet connection
that is provided as a
collective service to my
apartment block.
It is possible that one of more of the ports required by KNS
is blocked. Talk to your network administrator to see if the
requisite ports can be opened.
Can I use a software-based
firewall?
KNS will probably work with your firewall, provided that it is
set up for the ports required by ARCP and ARHP to be
open.
I want to time-out TX after a
set time.
Set the TOT to whatever duration you require. However,
since this simply times your transmission, once the time is
up, it will return the transceiver to RX even if you are in the
middle of transmission.
Is KNS compatible with
digital communications
(PSK31, SSTV, etc.)?
There is a delay with KNS. If you are using a WAN, this
delay increases, so it is not suitable for the various types of
digital communications or other operations that demand a
quick response. It is also not recommended if audio quality
is a priority.
Is KNS compatible with full
break-in or quick break-in
times?
Owing to the delays inherent in a network, this system is
not compatible with full break-in. For this same reason, it is
also not recommended for operations that require strict
TX/RX timing (contests or pileups). Also, break-in time
should be set longer than usual.
