Kenwood TH-D74 via Bluetooth


 

Trying unsuccessfully to connect my Kenwood TH-D74 via Bluetooth to UI-View on a windows machine.
The radio is connected via bluetooth to the laptop. I can use other applications fine
In UI-View I am configured as follows
BaudRate 9600
Parity None
Com Port 5 (confirmed)
Data Bit 8
Stop Bit 1
Host Mode Kiss

Setup of HostMode I am using TNC2
- This is where I'm unsure of what to do.

My callsign is configured. I'm just not seeing any other data coming into UI-View


 

A clarification please:

Are you attempting to receive positions from APRS on FM or D-PRS from D-Star?

APRS on FM


 

Using the TH-D74 with UI-View is supported by very specific instructions in the D74 manual. It appears there are clues as you proceed through the setup to watch for correct responses.

Did you follow the directions and see the proper responses as you did so?

Also, if your radio is operating on the APRS frequency without anything connected, can you hear valid packet noises when you listen to the audio with the squelch open?

If UI is set for Kiss then the radio must be set for kiss mode as well, Unfortunately UI does not have a specific set up for the TH-d74 in KISS mode so your best bet is to use the D700 setup rather than the TNC2 and see if that works, if it does not you will have to modify the commands in the D700.cmd file (found in the cmd directory) to suit what the D74 needs.
