... Section 12.6, and 12.7 might also be enlightening. SeventyThree(s).

Isn't that done automagically? Example, configure the primary as (say) a Yaesu whatever.? Configure the Echo port as (say) an Icom whatever. Spin the dial on the primary radio, Yaesu formatted messages are received by Logger32, decoded, and sent to the echo radio in Icom format.

Some commands simply don't translate from one radio brand to another.? So, configure a slave port instead, and map the differences - Like CW on the primary radio CW-R on the slave.

Or, look at section 2.5 (page 275) of the help file.

I wonder, is it possible to have Logger32 translate the CAT data received from a connected radio before it sends it to the Echo port?

I have searched the user manual, but can't see anything. That's not to say it isn't there, of course...

?

The use case I have in mind is:

Radio (FTdx101) connected to Logger32 via USB

Amplifier (Acom 2000) connected to radio via coax and PTT cable

?

At present, the amplifier automatically tunes to whatever segment it detects when I send it some RF.

It is possible, however, to connect the amplifier to a serial port and have it select the appropriate band segment as the data on the serial port changes. This means the amplifier is already tuned correctly prior to RF being applied, which is probably slightly better for the amplifier.

?

In a perfect world, I could connect the amplifier CAT port to the serial connector on the rear panel of the radio, but, apparently, the Acom doesn't speak FTdx101 language. Yaesu changed the format of the CAT data for the FTdx101 & FTdx10 series of radios, as I understand it.

Thus, I thought a work-around could be to send the data out from the logging software via the Echo port. It would need to be translated into something more vanilla, before being sent, though- Kenwood TS2000 or Yaesu FT1000, maybe. This would compensate for the amplifier firmware's inability to communicate with the FTdx101 or FTdx10.

?

Is there already a way to do this?

If not, is it something that would constitute a worthwhile enhancement?

Or is it only me?
