Dave - thanks for the info. When I played around, I just got curious
by the .pal extension and thought just to try it - why I got to this
result which pleased me. And why not keep something which has proven
to be practical? No need to invent the wheel again and again.
The present fldigi runs very smooth and absolutely stable on my W-XP
setup, and once used to the buttons at different locations it takes
the place of mixw more frequently. There is of course the one or
other mode which I like to try or use, e.g. bpsk at speeds not
incorporated or Amtor-FEC but it costs nothing to quit and change
over.

The palette files were designed to be compatible with DigiPan. It

seems

that MixW retained the palette scheme of its parent.

I just up loaded an xml file that will give you CAT control of the FT-
2000. I made some slight modifications to the FT-950 file to create
the FT-2000 file. I have it working with my FT-2000D with no
problems. You will need to edit the file for your COM port preference,
the file as is has it set to COM3.
Remember to set MENU items in the FT-2000: 027 to 4800, 028 to 100, 029
to on.

Hi Dave,
these news made my day as I was not successful in fiddling around with
the xml file. Really annoying that Yaesu could not follow a coherent
CAT system for their rigs. Never mind, you will solve my problems.
Thanks in advance.

Just installed FIDIGI on an xp machine but I am having a problem
getting CAT control to work. Has anyone had any sucess in writing a
rig.xml file for the FT2000? I saw the format for writting one in the
file sections of this reflector but thought I would ask if it allready
exists before trying to write one. I am not a programer and it could
be an overwhelming expierence for me.

I have just started with Win-Fldigi software and having a hard time
figuring out how to log my contacts. I have Wxlogbook downloaded but
unable to figure out how to get this logbook to accept my qso
information in Win-Fldigi when we click save in Win-Fldigi.
My main goal is to get all of my qso information from Win-Fldigi to my
main logger which is DXKeeper. Maybe I do not even need to use
Wxlogbook but maybe there is a way to use a DDE for direct transfer
from Win-Fldigi to DXKeeper ? Any help will be appreciated.

Well thanks Steve. I'm sure Rich is as pleased as I am that you are
up and running. It is an interesting software for sure.

Best Regards,

Dave

Thanks to all. Special thanks to Dave. It is up and running now.
Amazing decode!!

Hi Steve

Forgive me if I missed anything, and am going over stuff of which you
are already aware.

Using Rigcat should work fine you take the ts850.xml file, edit it,
and save it in your fldigi.files folder (directory) as rig.xml.

When using that TS850 or rig.xml file you can opt for rts/cts
handshaking, but if you do you can't then select rts for ptt as well.

If your TS850 cat plug has pins 4&5 handshaking linked together then
you don't need to select it as true in the rig.xml file, and can
specify rts for ptt.

There is no reason why the current open release should not recognise
your rig.xml file though. If the com port syntax is changed to com6
instead of the default Linux format, and the baud rate / stop bits
match, then probably the only thing which would stop the cat
functioning is the handshaking. Generically a lot of users of the
Kenwoods link pins 4 and 5 together on the 6 pin cat plug to give
permanent hard wire handshaking anyhow.

Well, that's my two penneth anyhow Steve :-). I hope it helps.

Regards,

Dave G3VFP

Thanks for the reply.
Hp 2.4 mhz machine with 1 meg ram. Edgeport to convert serial to usb,
ex sp3. G3??? cable from 13 pin port on 850 to edgeport for cat,
rigblaster for audio.
I have tried the hamlib selection, and it displays the 850, I change
port and data rate, initialize, and still no frequency display. The
audio portion works fine.
If I select the rig cat, and edit the 850 html file that is available,
It only shows the comment to select an html file, it does not open a
file.
I'll wait and see. Thanks again.
Steve

Without knowing more specifics of your system I would not know how to
advise you. Have you tried the Hamlib tab. There are some changes in
the works for Fldigi with rig control that are still in alpha so if
you don't get it working you may have to wait for 3.04 release.

Using xp sp3. can't get cat working either using winlib (won't display
freq or anything) or in rigcat (won't open html folder) I have
modified the html rig folder and the 850 html folder for com6 (using
an edgeport). all ports test OK.
Works fine in hrd. Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Dave,

Yes, I have sent off an email this evening asking about 64 bit
drivers. I haven't reloaded mixw yet but I have tried it with
DM780/HRD with the same results. I will try to load mixw and see if
that anwers any questions.

Thanks for the help and the file!

Hi Jim

Yes, but I can't remember where I saw the article. Certainly worth
checking out with the agent for sure. I assume you have already
tried using it with MixW on the same system. MixW version 2.18
automatically installs the rigexpert so you would soon find out
if there were a problem.

In general guys have had problems installing some software(s)
with Vista, and I have a pdf file on it which I will place in the
win-fldigi files area. In fact there will be a message and link
following this mail.

Worth checking out these various options anyhow Jim.

Hello all.

I have been using fldigi on an XP operating system with no

problems.

I recently upgraded to a new pc running Windows Vista Home Premium
with a 64 bit operating system. I have installed the latest v3.03
for Vista operting system (fldigi-3.03-winV.zip).

Everything runs fine for 5 to 10 minutess and then fldigi locks

up.

The waterfall stops, and some of the funtion keys work. For

examaple

it I select TX it will go into TX mode but it will take several
seconds before the function actually changes. You can never get

it

back to RX. With Hamlib Controller you can change to a stored
frequency but the frequency display is incorrect on the

controller.

Here are the specs on the new pc if it helps.

Model: HP Pavillion dv7 Notebook PC
Processor: AMD Turuion X@ Dual_Core Mobile RM-70 2 GHz
Memory (RAM): 4.00 GB
System type: 64-bit Operating System

I am using a RigExpert Plus USB interface which I have downloaded

and

installed the latest drivers. I have downloaded and installed
Service Pack 1 for the Vista operating system. So I'm pretty sure
I've got evertything up to date and the radios are an IC-703 and

FT-

1000MP.

Has anyone else had this or a similar problem? Any suggestions

would

be appreciated as the old XP system has bit the dust and I'm
exclusively on the new PC.

Thanks and 73,

Jim W1RET

Hi Jim

Have you tested out your Rigexpert on another data mode software ie like MixW ?.

I remember reading somewhere about provlems with 64bit Vista drivers.
