Take a look at this
I run it in Linux and can actually connect to the Bluetooth "dongle" attached to Ft857 serial CAT port. I use "connect serial"... But that is about it - from there I have to actually access stty and configure the serial port ( rfcomm0). I have not figured out how to use "Bluetooth manager" to send just binary code - not ASCII - to the CAT port... I am trying to decode source code to convert ASCII to 8 bits binary..... PS I have not found a single amateur radio application actually using Bluetooth instead of hardwired cable... |
