Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you, problem solved.
By far best video to date I have watched on basic settings !
Straight forward and very well explained, thanks.
Very clear and detailed. Thanks!
Gr8 video! Very helpful indeed! Thx
Thanks really helpful
Thanks Mark, very useful and well presented 73 Rob G3RCE
Thanks
Can we also do this over LAN and circumvent the need for that USB driver?
does the IC 9700 do ctcss?
Howdy. I'm following along and everything is going great until I get to setting the CAT control serial port setup and I've got no serial port. Just USB, so testing the CAT always returns an error.
Are you using a USB-B to USB-A cable from the LAN port to the computer, or are you using a CI-V remote cable to the computer? Thanks for your time.
Just a standard USB cable from the rig to PC. find me on QRZ and email me a picture of your ports section in windows device manager.
I get error messages while testing cat on the radio tab. 'Hamlib error: Communication timed out while opening connection to rig. Any thoughts?
If you find me on QRZ and email me directly we can try and debug the issue
Is it possible to do dual 2m/70cm wsjt simultaneously on the 9700?
No really I'm afraid. It's full duplex (you can RX at the same time as TX) but on different bands.
@@MarkG0MGX Sounds like not possible via USB interface but MAYBE possible with an audio interface? I would be interested in RXing on two different bands with FT8 simultaneously.
I figured it out actually. You can setup the USB audio device as dual channel. The default is single channel. In dual channel mode LEFT is the primary/main (where you will Tx) and RIGHT is the secondary band or dual watched band. With a second instance of WSJT watching the right stream you can do dual Rx simultaneously and listen to the 2nd Rx while TXing on the primary. I have not yet figured out rig control to allow TXing on the secondary.
MAIN VFO = FT8 end SUB VFO = FT8 is good
This is the real joy-killer in ham radio these days. If you don't use your radio on digital for a while., it stops working and you have to go through ALL of this process again. And of course you try changing the COM: port Baud rates, the C-IV address, the radio baud rates and the program baud rates a million times and it doesn't work. It never works fir the first few hours. Then, something changes and it works..at least until you do anything else with your PC. I'm about to give up on the digital modes I love so much. I'm out of headache relievers.
Hey Bob, it shouldn't be that difficult. Feel free to contact me and I'll try and help - email on QRZ is good. Mark. G0MGX
Bob Nagy I agree also. The digital modes are great, but I’m not a software engineer. When I stumble into a working laptop, and radio interface, I’m damn near scared to turn it off The radio companies need to make the digital modes internal
....the 9700 has the capability of saving configurations...so save one for WSJTX, etc. ....and load them back when you need them...that is when you get it to work.
