Re: USB Interface for FT8?
Steve- tnx for the suggestion about digrig.? It does seem to be more flexible and I I like the idea of built in CAT. Question:? Are you using it with the USB Isolator?

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
Digirig is worth a look, very happy with mine on my 817 and 857. And you get CAT control which the Signalink doesn¡¯t do. 73 Steve VK2ARS Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2023 12:22 PM To: [email protected]

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
Larry, I also use the SignalLink USB version with my FT-817. I was able to get it with the lead and configuration header. I use it with both an Acer Chromebook with fldigi running in its linux mode

I have been using Signalink USB with my 817nd for a few years now on ft8 ft4 and psk31. It works fine

Hi all. ECHOLINK is also a very good option with which you can access repeaters all over the world and have QSO's. Works from a pc, tablet, mobile phone, etc. Good luck in your future QTH. Richard

Hello, I use with FT 818 SCU17, it is with sound card and CAT. It works absolutely perfectly in my opinion. Zdenek ok1mae 73! "---------- P?vodn¨ª zpr¨¢va ---------- Od: lbakely <lbakely@...>

Re: results of new US antenna design - advice sought
Samuda, This is getting silly, and your responses feel 'personal'. I asked if this design you say was widely discussed in the 70s, 80s, and 90s was ever discussed in an ARRL publication - for some

Re: results of new US antenna design - advice sought
Ken N2VIP, I won't obviously change your mind - and you have already said NEDA antenna design must have been published before in the US (still waiting) - just need to point out you can't compare the

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
The Signalink is the easiest solution. I have been using one with my original FT-817. There are other interfaces with more bandwidth but the 817 is limited to about 2.8kHz. You will also want a CAT

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
The SignaLink has lots of features for aiding in adapting it to various rigs.? Inside is a 16 pin socket for configuring the interface cable to the radio for the signals, one puts jumpers into it?

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
I agree with Dan. I use a signaling with my Icom 756,7000,706,705,Yaesu ft817, 891 and my KX3. It just works. I use the remade jumpers for easy swap to other radios. ~ Don

Re: results of new US antenna design - advice sought
Al, You might read on how an antenna tuner works. Tuners do more than just make the radio happy. It will result in getting more power into the antenna/radiator.? Now what the radiator does with that

Re: USB Interface for FT8?
The SignaLink SLUSB6PM connects to the 6 pin mini-din on the back of the FT-817ND and should work fine. There are other more recent sound interface devices, but they are newer with less service
