<div class="moz-cite-prefix">george<br> <br> 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> <br> <a target="_blank" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.qsl.net/k0kn/">http://www.qsl.net/k0kn/</a><br> <br> ken n1dot<br> <br> <br> <br> On 5/25/2014 12:06 PM, <a target="_blank" class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:mike@midnighteng.com">mike@midnighteng.com</a> wrote:<br> </div> <blockquote cite="mid:20140525090624.71befee5dbd13c5325dd1a521b4e73ee.3e28b4d10e.wbe@email06.secureserver.net" type="cite"><span style="font-family:Verdana; color:#000000; font-size:10pt;"> <div><br> <br> </div> <div>George,</div> <div><br> </div> <div>Yes that will work.

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> </div> <div> </div> <div>[general]</div> <div> </div> <div>[usb2428]</div> <div> </div> <div>hdwtype=0</div> <div>rxboost=0</div> <div>txboost=1</div> <div>carrierfrom=ppinvert</div> <div>ctcssfrom=no</div> <div>txmixa=voice</div> <div>txmixb=no</div> <div>invertptt=0</div> <div>duplex=0</div> <div>rxondelay=12</div> <div>eeprom=0</div> <div>pp10=cor</div> <div>pp4=ptt</div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div>[usb28599]</div> <div> </div> <div>hdwtype=0</div> <div>rxboost=0</div> <div>txboost=0</div> <div>carrierfrom=ppinvert</div> <div>ctcssfrom=no</div> <div>txmixa=voice</div> <div>txmixb=voico</div> <div>invertptt=0</div> <div>duplex=0</div> <div>rxondelay=0</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> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri'; COLOR: #000000">George J Csahanin<br> W2DB<br> Cedar Park, TX<br> 512-401-2630 home<br> 401-338-0568 cel</div> </div> </div> <hr>_______________________________________________<br> App_rpt-users mailing list<br> <a target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org">App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org</a><br> <a target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users</a><br> <br> To unsubscribe from this list please visit <a target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users">http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users</a> and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
