Michael,

 

Are you using Ham radio deluxe to control and interface to the radio using the URI?  I am looking for a way to control all of my ham station using some interface like the URI to consolidate my microphone, DTMF, Key, and speaker into one unit.

Group,

 

Can someone please help me out either on or off list? I have 2 nodes hooked up to my ACID box using URIx. One is an allstar public node that is hooked up to a UHF repeater. The other is a private node remote base hooked up to a FT-817ND. Audio is working great on both radios. I am able to connect and disconnect with no problems between the nodes. So, to get to the point, I am not able to remote command the remote base either from DTMF via the repeater or CLI. I have tried both a serial and USB CAT cable from the ACID box. I am able to control the FT817ND with no problems using ham radio deluxe, so I know both cables and the radio are working. I did hook up a null modem cable from the port in rpt.conf to my laptop and I am seeing something in putty. I have tried the 3 port speeds that the radio supports for CAT. The data I am seeing using putty is unreadable for all 3 speeds. I do not know what to do next

 

Any thoughts??

 

Thanks,
