Demonstrates the _RoMac Automatic CW Identifier 2012_ software, a Windows application designed to automate station identification and provide a tuning pulser. It can send CW identification via a sound card's audio output or by keying a radio's manual CW jack using a serial port's DTR line. The software also supports CAT commands for various Kenwood, Yaesu, Flex, and Elecraft radios, enabling automatic mode and frequency changes for ID transmission. It integrates with USB audio-capable radios like the Icom 7300 and Yaesu FT-991, simplifying connectivity with a single USB cable. The application features a fully programmable interface, adjustable CW speed from **5 to 35 WPM**, and ID intervals from **5 to 30 minutes**. The integrated "Pulse Tuner" function allows for safe amplifier and antenna tuner adjustments by sending short audio tones or rapid CW keying, with an adjustable duty cycle from 1% to 100%. It offers compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and amplifiers, and a schematic for a basic sound card interface is included for users without existing setups.

For every radio amateur who loves to travel by car, a mobile installation soon becomes a necessity. While in inhabited areas there is usually some coverage of VHF repeaters, in many other places VHF radios are useless. In these very places, HF can provide reliable contacts, and a lot of fun, from anywhere.

256 memories enable the _AT-AUTO_ to recall settings across multiple bands, making it efficient for operators who frequently change frequencies. The tuner is compatible with various antennas and amplifiers, such as the Mercury LUX, and integrates seamlessly with radios like the FLEX 6400 using an RS232-USB connection. This integration allows the tuner to follow frequency changes without additional input, enhancing operational efficiency. Despite being out of production, the _AT-AUTO_ remains supported by Kessler Engineering, which offers firmware updates and repair services. The tuner features a cross-needle SWR meter, providing quick visual feedback during tuning. It also includes a QRO keyline circuit to protect amplifiers during tuning. Users appreciate the tuner's ability to track radios via CAT control, avoiding automatic tuning during QSOs, a common issue with other models. The _AT-AUTO_ is praised for its durability and performance, with many users noting its reliability over years of use. Its ability to handle legal limit power and its balanced line output make it a versatile choice for serious operators. Although it lacks some features like multiple coax outputs found in other models, its robust build and continued support make it a valuable tool for HF enthusiasts.

AllScan is a free and open-source web app for AllStar nodes that provides Favorites Management features, AllStarLink Stats integration, and connection monitoring and control functions. Shows your favorites in a Dashboard summary table with Keyed status, Connected Node count and other statistics. Continually scans the status of each favorite using ASL's Stats API data showing which favorites are active and have recently been active. Allows favorites to be connected with a single click (optionally automatically disconnecting any currently connected nodes first). Allows the Favorites Table to be sorted by Node#, Name, Description, Location, etc. Favorites can be added/deleted simply by entering the node# and clicking a button. These features finally give AllStar nodes similar memory management and scan capabilities that analog radios have had for decades. AllScan is mobile-friendly and optimized for ease of use on both small and large screens. AllScan follows the latest web development standards, with PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS cleanly partitioned, runs on both ASL and HamVOIP, and is very easy to install, configure, and update.
