If it works in manual mode I would use that.
I don't think you can interface the two together.
It is easy to blow the circuit in the FT857D when interfacing to the wrong
tuner.

Evening folks
Right bear with me .
I have my trusty old 857D i have also gained an FC 757at the tuner works
well when used manually has anyone ever tried to connect one to an 857d i
see the the cat port in Linear mode the radio has the four band ouputs A
B C D in tuner mode it only has band output on 1 pin a varying voltage has
anyone ever tried using this tuner with an 857d fully automatically
I also have the ft757gx as well but it needs all the caps and diodes
changing pity but such is life
Thanks Pete G6NJR
