Hi,
Having fun here with Delfi and RASCAL. Keeping on tune and in sync is quite tricky though.
Using computer control via the CAT port the Yaesu FT847 seems to limited to 10Hz steps. When manual tuning the available steps are Normal 0.1, 1, 10 Hz. Default 1Hz ( page 23 in the manual)
Does anyone on the bb know if the CAT frequency step can be modified, perhaps by a hidden menu or similar.
BTW this 10Hz limitation seems to apply to the FT817 as well.
Its even worse... My ft817 seems to mute when given frequency commands via the cat interface. I have to tune it in steps of 100 to 200 Hz to minimize the amount of corrupted packets.
