Just a quick update: I'm continuing the FT-980 Hamlib development effort. I've completed testing/fixing the existing code, and have now started to add functionality.
First up was "targetable VFO": previously you could only change the "active" settings (ex if you were operating GEN, you could only change the GEN mode, frequ). Now you tell the API which VFO you want to modify. This was first because I need it to do other stuff, like program memories, run test scripts, etc.
I'll add a more low-hanging fruit and will push this "Alpha-2" version up to the root Github repository. Since this is a low-priority hobby effort, I expect it to be a couple months before I have all the FT-980 functionality?
Please please please: we need beta testers! I can help get you set up (easy if you have a Linux box), but we need more eyes, more PCs, and more FT-980's than just mine to ensure a robust work-product.
