[amsat-bb] FT 897D Freq Control and Data

[Rm2642@aol.com]

Good Morning All:
Is it possible to connect both DATA and CAT interfaces to one  laptop? The 
transceiver is a Yaesu FT-897D. 
 
I can receive satellite telemetry following a path from  the DATA port to TNC 
to laptop serial interface. 
 
Where do I make the CAT connection to control doppler  shift?
 
Seems like a dumb question but, can DATA and CAT operations  really be done 
simultaneously??? 
 
Using:
SATPC32
Windows XP
 
TIA
