Re: CAT - Control - Yet another post

Hi Ravi,
What is there unfortunate about your serial number? As far as I can tell, your FT847 is a november 2004 model which makes it one of the last ones (2005) produced.

Hi,?
I have been trying to connect my FT-847 to my RigPi. After a few unsuccessful attempts (many), I then tried to use flrig via a USB (CH340), CAT-847, FTBCAT and FTBASICMMO.
In some cases, the 'CAT' symbol appeared on the rig, but the radio failed to connect. I've read the posts on the serial number saga and unfortunately my serial number is 4M950027.?
Anyway, while trying out the programs above, I found something called CommsTester and this allowed me to 'see' the incoming data while tuning the rig.This is what is see:
CommTest Version 1.1.8
Received FF00 on COM 5
Received 20FE00 on COM 5
Received 20FA00 on COM 5
Received 20FE00 on COM 5
Received 20FA00 on COM 5
Received 20F600 on COM 5
Received 20F200 on COM 5
Received 20EE00 on COM 5
Received 20EA00 on COM 5
Received 20E600 on COM 5
Received 20E200 on COM 5
I haven't been able to decode the data yet, but would this kind of patch work? See?

Yaesu have just mentioned that they do not support the firmware update at present. Are there any other avenues open for me? Many thanks
Ravi
