Jim, My settings are the same as George's. I also had the issue of intermittent loss of connection and saw some threads about cable lengths under certain circumstances. I was using a long 6' cable. I purchased a 3' cable part number RPC-i17-UF made by Valley Enterprises. It has the C-17 USB FTDI chipset and is designed especially for the iCom CI-V cat control. After that my problems went away.

I occasionally see the situation you describe where the bands are reversed when first connecting to the radio, but un-clicking and re-clicking on the "C" option corrects it. Otherwise, mine works flawlessly.

Hello All I recently swapped from FT847 to IC910H. I am using SAT 32 with little success. Some of the issues are: It appears that after a bit of idle monitoring( waiting for the next sat pass) the 910 looses communications with SAT 32. When a sat pass is activated the uplink and downlink and associated modes are reversed from what is displayed in SAT 32. can anyone relay their settings for sat 32 and the 910. maybe I can find what is configured incorrectly! ThanksJim KI6WJ DM09
