Try setting the PC baud rate on the radio to 57600. Also try connecting a serial program like screen and typing in the radio ID string. It should respond with 'OK'. screen /dev/ttyUSB0 57600 TMV71 or

Check out a recent script (wlgw-check.sh) I wrote for rig control of the tm-v71. https://github.com/n7nix/auto-rmsgw-find This script iterates through a list of RMS gateways using a TM-V71a and

I now have a TM-V71a connected to my UDRC and am trying to get rigctl to work with it. I have an equivalent of a PG-5H connected to a serial/USB converter enumerated as /dev/ttyUSB0. My first test of

I’ve been booting from the external Toshiba 500gig USB drive for years but the Pi still needs /boot on the SD card to read the configuration then continues booting from the external drive. In your

Thank you Christopher, I kinda knew that but my attempt was to use the 12 volt input to power everything. I am using the draws in my RV/ToyHauler and 12volt amps do fluctuate during times of no

Thanks for getting back to me. DRAWS Side: Pin 3/Orange writing 1 to pin 12 will raise voltage to 4.22v PTT light goes on Pin 3/Orange writing 0 to pin 12 will lower voltage to 3.6mv PTT light goes

Verify the DRAWS hat -------------------- Disconnect the cable from your radio but plug into DRAWS hat on the open connector put your volt meter on what you think is the PTT pin Manually turn the

I got some time today (its raining!) to play with this. Initially the measure_deviation.sh script would run and not trip the PTT circuit. So I re-wired the cable and after looking more closely, I

To debug PTT issues: Use the 'How to use measure_deviate.sh' notes here: https://github.com/nwdigitalradio/n7nix/tree/master/deviation Use left & right connector locations and either tune a second

Follow-up to the cable issue. I've double checked the setup. If I put the hand mic back in line and Press PTT, my receiving radio breaks squelch, so it would seem that the PTT circuit is not

Bill, 6 pin mini din 1200 and 9600 although I've only used on 1200. Doug VE1ZG

6 pin mini-din or other? 1200 baud and/or 9600 baud?

The Icom IC-7000 has a data port that works well for packet. Doug VE1ZG

You are comparing apples and oranges. The "Data Port" on ham radios is a misnomer. It is a port for audio connections, just like the microphone jack. It typically has PTT, TX and RX audio (often from

The problem you are experiencing is being caused by the lack of power to run the hard drive. Buy yourself a Y USB splitter to allow the drive to be powered from a separate supply. Make sure the

I just plugged the harddrive into a USB port on the Pi3. I now get the lightning bolt when the drvie is accessed. When idle the lightning bolt is not on. So it is working but un-sure at this point

Success!!! I unplugged all my accessories and also unhooked the drive power from the Pi. So I have two power inputs at this time. The Pi is powered by the 12 volts from the Draws Hat and the Drive is

It would be nice to have a little more information on shipping dates, and order status
