remote base question
I just resurrected my remote base allstar PC, hooked it to my FT-857(same commands as FT897) and I can connect to it, I can control it, read frequencies, etc. But what doesn't work is COS from the remote base radio to indicate signal. The client's repeater stays keyed. Until I send "#" to disconnect the remote command. Maybe I just don't remember right but I recall the remote acting on COS. I have modified the FT-857 to have Micom-like squelch which would make the remote really neat on hf where the users's repeater would not be keyed continuously. Am I remembering incorrectly or is something wrong here? And if it doesn't detect COS from the remote base radio can that be added. I have a great voice detection board I made up for the FT-897/857.

While I will have to bump my memory as well, Have you looked at your logic settings for cos ? ;carrierfrom=no ;carrierfrom=dsp ;carrierfrom=pp ;carrierfrom=ppinvert ;carrierfrom=usb ;carrierfrom=usbinvert carrierfrom=vox Not sure I understand how you are achieving cos from the radio. But a s-meter indicator, while present in the cat system can be derived and I don't think app_rpt can make use of this on HF, it simply does not work well for USB/LSB modes. Great for AM/FM. You should use and set VOX settings appropriately for HF. There is a vox threshold. Hope that helps. ...mike/kb8jnm On 4/19/2019 12:33 AM, George Csahanin wrote:
