Re: YAAC - Installed on inovato Quadra but no USB to TNC option

That's because USB isn't a type of TNC or remote sensor. You could have your Argent Data Tracker connected through a motherboard COM port (non-USB) if your computer was old enough to have one; the TNC would behave the same regardless of the cable type.

What the YAAC port types specify is what is on the other end of the communications cable, such as a Serial_TNC for a Terminal Network Controller connected through a serial port. Similarly, Serial_GPS specifies a GPS receiver connected through a serial port.

Note that the Linux user account running YAAC will have to be a member of the group owning the serial port device (such as /dev/ttyUSB0), or YAAC will not have permissions to open the port. Typically, this will be the "dialout" group. Type the "groups" command at a shell prompt to see in which groups your account is a member. You can use the "sudo usermod" command to modify your account's supplemental group membership if needed.

Hope this helps.

Can YAAC talk to USB?

I looked in File -> Configure -> Expert Mode -> Add Port but none of the drop-down options mention USB.

My rig is an ALinco DR-135T MkIII with an internal Argent Data Tracker TNC that's connected via USB.

Thanks
