Hello Sir,
Hate to bother you, really, but if you could help me out would
be most appreciative.
Have a brand new Icom R8600, and would like very much to use it with your wfview.
My eyesight isn’t too great anymore (in my mid 80’s now), so the
possibility of controlling the program from my pc screen would truly be great.
But, I’m lost in configuring the program (and probably also the radio to get it to accept the program commands)
I guess the first question is: am I using the correct rear radio Port ?
Remote Control Jack:
Connects to a pc for remote control using using CI-V commands
I have a cable from the USB B Type B Port):
Connects to a PC
Outputs the decoded FSK…
Outputs the demodulated AF Signal
Interface for the optional CS-R8600 or RS-R8600
Intertface for the remote control by the CI-V commands
Or, should the cable go to the IQ Data Output Port:
Outputs I/Q data
Connect a USB
And,
a. What would you suggest for (all) the Settings in the Program ?
b. Do I have to select COM Ports, or does “Auto” do it all ?
c. Is there some setting in the radio menus to tell it to allow Control from your program ?
Let me say again how much I appreciate your time and help.
If I can get your program working, would really help
me use the radio a lot. Eyesight a real problem these days.
Best regards,
Bob
