Re: Windows USB Drivers for VARA and DRA-50 on Yaesu FT-991A

Hi Grant, Following the suggestions of the others, get your COM port drivers loaded from Yaesu, and Winklink loaded. Once you get those COM ports working, and the software running, use the attached EXCEL file to make the menu settings for VARA HF. Here is the Excel file that I use to record the menu settings for various operating modes with my FT991A. Take a look at it, and let me know if? you have any questions. Since I have multiple antennas, I make sure I am connected to the right one for the band I intend to use. I also use these settings that I change from the screen menu: Set MODE to USB Set RF PWR to 25 To run Winlink/VARA HF session: Open Winlink, click on MESSAGE, then NEW MESSAGE. Compose e-mail message and post to outbox. Select VARA HF/Winlink, then open session. Click on CHANNEL SELECTION and pick best option. Click on CHANNEL SELECT. Click START. OK, let's see how close all this gets you to up and running. Get back to me with results or questions and I will do whatever I can to get ya going.
