I would be more then happy to sit down with you and your system on the other side of a telephone conversation, and hack our way through it. When is good for you? Jim WB6NIL

Hello Group:
Anybody out there interfaced a TM-271 (or 471) as a remote base with app_rpt?
I had hoped that modern Kenwood mobile radios would share a common programming protocol. The app_rpt mentions the TM-G707 as an example of a radio that can be used with the rpt.conf option 'remote=kenwood'. However, it does not work for me using the TM-271.
I built up a RS-232 to TTL interface which works fine with the Kenwood programming software but not with app_rpt. Recalling a memory channel or setting a VFO frequency results in an 'invalid frequency' callout from Asterisk.
Looking through the app_rpt source function 'setkenwood', I see the string 'VMC 0,0' is sent to the radio initially. When I monitor the serial data from Asterisk to the radio, this string is sent but the radio's response is '?' (0x3F). One suspects this isn't the right answer.
Does anyone have experience or suggestions with the TM-217 on app_rpt?
73,
Dave VE7MQ.
