The CAT commands appears to be the same as for the FT-2000 .. but, since I do not run any Yaesu equipment here - I can only ask the help of the users of these two Yaesu rigs. Also -- we know about the EXTRA options (on your Yaesu rig like the FT-2000) that you have to adjust to get the comms to link-up correctly. Do you ALSO have to adjust the FTDX1200 or FTDX3000 also for these parameters (with the rig itself) ?? 73 Joe wa6axe From kp4p at hotmail.com Sat Aug 16 15:03:51 2014 From: kp4p at hotmail.com (Telesforo Figueroa) Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2014 19:03:51 +0000 Subject: [Dxbase] FW: Use of DXBase 2007 QSY feature In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: From: kp4p at hotmail.com To: dxbase-request at mailman.qth.net Subject: Use of DXBase 2007 QSY feature Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2014 19:01:51 +0000 Where can I find the instructions to make DXBase 2007 work with the QSY feature.
