You also have to use a null-modem in case of a FT-847.<br>
Watch which is one is ttyUSB0/ttyUSB1, etc. if you<br>

<div>usb to serial adapters work just fine with hf remotes.</div>
<div>You can not define them as a serial port because they are
not. They are a usb device first and foremost.</div>

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 style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY:

<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> </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>
