Re: FT8 and ALC
I set the audio level to just barely cause the ALC to move when in transmit mode.? I set the power control on the radio to give me the desired watts out.? I use this same method for all of the

Re: FT8 and ALC
So for SSB modulation, the volume level is what sets the output power to a large extent. So both the power output setting on the radio and the volume setting on the computer interact. How do you

Re: FT8 and ALC
Peter, correct.? After that, I use the actual power control on the FT-847 to set my output power.

Re: FT8 and ALC
No! If I understand you right. You must set your radio settings how you want. This is not the same power as on the software. There is a scale you adjust this to change the audio level. I think it¡¯s

FT8 and ALC
Hey all. Just playing around with FT8 and reading up as much as I can. Many links and how to's mention that you just need the ALC to flicker. SO I have set the PWR meter set to ALC. So in regards to

Re: Preference to an interfacing system
I used to use a remote rig interface on my TS480sat with great results https://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=1051 or https://www.remoterig.com/wp/ The FT847 will interface but you will need remote
Re: Preference to an interfacing system
You should check the serial number of your 847 against the version chart (somewhere on the 'Net - I forget where). The early versions could only be driven from CAT, not read from. Not being able to

Re: Preference to an interfacing system
Something as simple as a USB to RS232 adapter and then dev/ttyUSB0 normally My interface of choice is rather expensive but very reliable but you can get them from the internet here in the UK second

Just my 2 pennies worth. Interfacing and controlling your FT847 remotely is very simple, however piping audio back and forth over the internet ¡­.. tough¡­.. very tough. For my satellite setup I

Preference to an interfacing system
Hey All. I just picked up a 847 second hand (obviously) and want to use it at a remote location if at all possible. I have been scanning this group for links and suggestions for interfacing ideas etc.

Re: FT-847 Interfacing cables
I was more concerned with the diodes they show in the Yaesu manual in the ALC cable, The cable in manual was designed to connect to 4 amps. My 847 may never see an amp inline if it does it will most

Re: FT-847 Interfacing cables
I think you will find it is the PTT you are not supposed to use with an amplifier. This is a low level, low current switch and meant for foot pedals as an input. The Standby socket however can switch

If you read your manual, you will see there is a warning not to use the ALC for an amplifier. Sent from Jeff M0UHF
