The free "MyTuner" software program allows you to change channels on Roger Wilco (free voice communication software program) without leaving the game you are in. MyTuner adds what is called "hot-key" channel switching to Roger Wilco that many flight squadrons and gaming clans so desperately need. The following information should help you install MyTuner program and modify it's "Tuner.ini" file to fit your gaming needs. MyTuner has only been tested with Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 98, 98 Second Edition using Roger Wilco Mark 1c. We estimate that over 10,ooo+ users have downloaded and use MyTuner. With the MyTuner Program you can update the Tuner.ini file with up to 25 command lines of your choice.

How to install the MyTuner Program:

1. Extract all files from the MyTuner zip file to a temporary directory.
2. Then run the setup.exe program. This will create a directory in your "Program Files" called "MyTuner". Example:
   "C:\Program Files\MyTuner\"
   
   
   

Setting up the MyTuner "Tuner.ini" file:
(with your RW IP’s & channels & passwords & desired commands.)

When the setup.exe program has finished installing the MyTuner program you must do the following:

1. Open you Windows Explorer and go to the location where the program is installed.
   C:\Program Files\MyTuner\ .
   
   
2. In the above directory path you will find the file named "Tuner.ini". Double click on the Tuner.ini file and open it with the Window's NOTEPAD program.
   
   
3. This is where you will need to input YOUR IP numbers you want to use for Roger Wilco base station and YOUR RW Channel names.
   
   
   

When you first open the "Tuner.ini" file it will look like this:
(This is just the install Default Tuner.ini file and may or may not work, because the RogerWilco.com RW base station may or may not be operational when you test your MyTuner settings). You must change the default IP numbers (URLs) listed in the Tuner.ini file to the IP numbers for your Roger Wilco base station and enter your RW channel names.)
(NOTE: The lines below have been numbered on this web page for this explaination.)

CHANGE the IP numbers and CHANNEL names to your RW base station's info:
Where you see "www.rogerwilco.com/redteam" on line 1 above, change this to the IP number and "/" and channel name you want to use for CTRL Z command. The do the same for the lines # 1-7 above.

Example: 1a.

CTRL-Z=/join1 100.123.254.158/goatcheese

(Save the file once you have setup all the channels or commands you want to use).

 

TO ADD A PASSWORDED CHANNEL:
If you wanted to add a passworded channel, you would change the IPnumber/channelname information then include a SPACE and type in your desired password.

Example: 1b.

CTRL-Z=/join1 100.123.254.158/goatcheese yoursecretpasswd

HOW TO RUN THE MYTUNER PROGRAM:

First open the Roger Wilco program.

Now open the MyTuner Program. (see below.)

The window will open that looks like this. (See below)

The first time you open the MyTuner Program all of the settings will display. This program needs to be running for the MyTuner program to work.

The 3 boxes at the bottom of the window currently are only there to display debug information: They show the current status of the CTRL, SHIFT, and assigned keys.

The 4 boxes to the right (Channel, Hot Key, Roger Wilco Channel, Password) have no use at this time but my in the future.

The first time you use one of the settings (CTRL Z) the display panel in the MyTuner program will change to that setting only. So if you can’t remember your settings print out the Tuner.ini file this will help you until you remember them.
