Jim,
I downloaded the FT-2000 fig file from your website about a week of
so ago. In fact, you told me where to go to find it.
This is what I have experienced using it with DX4WIN V7.01.
1. Attempting to spot a DX station with a split frequency, it never
reads VFO B when you do a CTRL A.
2. With the radio in CW mode, and clicking on a RTTY spot, it does
not change the mode. Clicking on a SSB spot, it changes the mode.
3. With the radio in the SSB mode. clicking on a RTTY spot, changes
the frequency for both VFO A and B, if a split freq is there, but
does NOT change the mode.
If the spot is a CW spot, the VFO's are changed but the mode stays in SSB.
4. Radio in RTTY mode, and selecting a CW spot, radio mode stays in
RTTY. However if selecting a SSB spot, it will set both VFO's and
change the mode to SSB.
Like there are two issues,
One is reading VFO B frequency when spotting a station and the radio
is in "split mode".
The other is that it is not reading a frequency table that tells it
what mode it should be in for what range of tables.
I know some logging programs let you set what range of frequencies
are for SSB, RTTY or PSK and what for CW. Don't know if DX4WIN has
such a table but I do know that everything worked FB with my 1000MP
and does not with my FT-2000.
Would appreciate hearing what you think and what we can do to get a
better rig file fot the FT-2000.
Thanks
