another important point when you setup the line for your cat
control for the ft-857/897 you will have to<br>
use a real serial port. It will not work with a usb to serial
adapter at all. I just set a remote base using an ic-706.<br>
<br>
I had one radio setup that way using an old irlp board for logic
for the ptt and cos. But do remember that when you computer<br>
starts up you radio may go on to tx mode until asterisk reset's
the port. if it does that will depend on which line you use for
ptt.<br>
<br>
look here at this website for more info about the parallel port
setup. he has some nice circuit design's for this also.<br>

<div>Yes that will work. You might also need to define the
parallel port address in the node stanza for each node.</div>
<div>And if you think you might use a doug hall rbi-1, start
using pins above pp3 (pin 4) then you will not have to
redefine the pins when you do that.</div>

<div>Hey guys, before I start putting this together I
have a question. I’m putting two nodes on one PC. One
node is the usual repeater. The other is a FT897 type
remote base. I really like using the parport for
cos/keying. And I want to use the same PC’s port for
both radios. As long as I keep the ppx=?? stuff within
a particular radios node stanza will it work? Or if I
have a ptt specified for one radio do I not have the
ability to have another ppx=ppp under the “other node”
even if (obviously) different pins for each. Like
this:</div>

<div> </div>
<div>[usb2428]</div>

<div>eeprom=0</div>
<div>pp2=ptt</div>
<div>pp11=cor</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>So before I go build this up I’m curious about this
point. If it won’t fly I’ll add another PC for remote
base controller. I have a few D945GCLF boards. I’d
move the remote base to one using Limey</div>
