[Logic] Multiple Icom Rigs and CT-17 Level Converter

2003年10月28日 07:20:29 -0500

Brad one thing I left out is that I'm using 2 W1GEE interfaces. One of my
PRO II's is set for the alt CI-V address that I got from the Icom manual.
One rig and software entry is set for 9600 baud and the other is set for
4800 baud. I don't think it makes a difference which is which. I believe the
change in baud rates keeps the software from changing the one not set to the
same rate, also keeps the rigs from tracking because one doesn't understand
the others baud rate. That's just my simplistic way of thinking about it. It
may well be something else, but it does work here.
There was just a similar thread going on the TRX-Manager reflector with a
guy trying to use 2 Icom receivers. He tried this method of setting
different baud rates and he was able to get the 2 receivers to work
independently using 1 interface.
I think the reason I used 2 interfaced is kept the PW-1 amp from getting
confused as to which rig was controlling it.
Good luck and let us know if it works for you!
Julio, W4HY
