[amsat-bb] IC-9700 and SATPC32 linear tuning

[Dave J]

Hello folks:

I just upgraded my tired FT-847 for a new IC-9700. FM birds are not a
problem but I'm wondering if someone has a good method of finding your
signal on the linear birds while using SATPC-32 revision 12.8d. The only way
I can vary the TX frequency is under the CAT Tuning menu Upl Calib field. It
seems to work but it's a bit clunky and not very quick. If I try to change
the transmit frequency on the radio it only gives me a few seconds then
reverts back to what is on the main screen of the PC. If I try changing the
receive frequency, the transmit frequency changes as well. Probably new
radio operator error but I would appreciate any suggestions.

 

Thanks//Dave WB9YIG
