Much to my dismay I have had to move from XP to Windows 8. I wound up with my mom's new HP all in one with the AMD processor. I have the programming cable from Valley enterprises and it worked great with my MacBook and my XP machine, no luck on the new one. I need some real help on this and any would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced. |
Thanks for the reply Andy. I believe it to be the FTDI chipset, not certain. I had another USB to Serial cable,?brand??name is Dynex DB-UBD89, that I used with an old laptop to plug in my old GPS.I also had a serial connector for my FT-60, put everything together and it worked straight "out of the box". I didn't have to download and install drivers or anything. It was great.

We tend to spend a lot of time in New Mexico. They have an interlinked system called the New Mexico Megalink. I can even receive some contacts here in southern Colorado. Enjoy
And by the way I have solved my problem of writing to and from the FT-60 using Windows 8. I had a different USB to Serial cable and a serial cable for the FT-60. Plugged everything in, no problems.

It will most likely work great with Linux as does Chirp.? Dual boot.

Well, aprs proved to be darned handy for my balloon flights. ?Used a byonics freq-agile transmitter to tx both on .390 and a quiet channel. ?I want to try something remote like an solar-powered weather station or a boat at sea. ?Out in the middle of nowhere where digis can't hear, I could tx on a sat freq if I can hit it. ?If I can't track at the remote site, and just use a fixed antenna, I would at least need to program the days/times of view to tx a packet or two when the sat is overhead. ?Even getting one packet through every day or two would be useful.I would have a home station (hand-held at first, then maybe motor-driven) to receive and decode the aprs data from the iss/sat. ?Actually anybody could receive and decode it. ?I just take the audio out of the HT, split it to run to headphones and the audio-input of a laptop, and run the soundcard modem by UZ7HO.Just want to try something different and interesting.gil
