Re: YAAC and Direwolf interfacing

If you want to make your own cables, this is what you need (drawing modified from the manual). The Serial port can go through a DB-9 connector to a USB Serial port DB-9 or you can use a USB to serial module like this The connectors for the radio are plain Mini-DIN 6 pin. 73 Danny, K5CG HH 550-0609 SKCC 14257 From: "Joseph LaFerla" <joe@...> To: "yaac-users" <yaac-users@groups.io> Sent: Sunday, December 1, 2024 8:29:17 AM Subject: Re: [yaac-users] YAAC and Direwolf interfacing Hi Danny I already have a homebrew cable with a miniDin on one end and a DB9 on the other. This was from my old tncpi2. In the old setup, the miniDin plugged into the Kenwood radio and the DB9 into the DB9 socket on the tncpi2.? I am still a little unclear how this is all going to connect up in the new configuration.

Yes Joe, that will work. Now you need to connect that to the radio body by making the cable or with a Kenwood PG-5H cable kit. Connect the sound card jacks to the USB sound card. The DB-9 data goes into a USB serial port on your computer. my direwolf.conf...

Hi Joe, A digirig would work but it is way more than you need and may not work the way you want (PTT). I have a TM-V71A running YAAC and direwolf (1.6) on a Pi400 and I use a simple USB sound card connected to the DATA port for audio I/O, and a USB Serial cable to the PC port. When you put the radio into Echolink mode, it disables the Serial CAT protocol on the PC port but RTS in becomes PTT on the DATA BAND only. YAAC is connected to direworlf via the AGWPE port. If you need more details I'll send you my config files. 73 Danny, K5CG HH 550-0609 SKCC 14257 From: "Joseph LaFerla" <joe@...> To: "yaac-users" <yaac-users@groups.io> Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2024 12:15:25 PM Subject: [yaac-users] YAAC and Direwolf interfacing HI all ? I have been running yaac for a long time with a TNC-Pi2 on my rpi3 and a Kenwood TMD710G.? I have recently had to ditch the tnc and have been looking at replacing it with direwolf.? ?I have a working configuration using direwolf 1.7 and a digirig into my Baofeng handheld.? I want to make this work with my kenwood mobile TMd710G.? I am thinking that most of my current configuration will work. I don't think that my digirig would work.? I have read somewhere that I need to setup an AGWPE port.? ?Can anyone help please? ? Thanks in advance ? Joe VA3TV |
