Re: CAT Interface


 

Wald,

Any luck on the CAT interface for the FT-980.? Sounds like you may need an interface before you can hit the PC.

Subject: Re: [Yaesu-FT-980] CAT Interface

I recently bought on eBay a USB interface cable that claims to be compatible with FT-980 (among other radios that use the same CAT connector style).. Connected it to the latest version of HRD running on Windows 10, on a modern computer.? The virtual port is created correctly, HRD configured to work with it but there is no communication with the radio.

BTW, HRD claims to support FT-980.? It appears in their pull? down list.

Do you guys have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?? There are two variables here:? the HRD and the cable.? I think I can rule out the radio as I tried three different ones.? The computer should not be a suspect as I tried two different laptops (both i7).

Are there any programs that would run on WIn10 that I could use for diagnostics?

Thank you and 73,
Wald N4PL
