I have been watching the discussions on the Logger32 reflector about the Slave Port and SDR Console with interest.

Then connected SDR-console to the Yaesu using Omni-Rig and then I connect Logger32 to the sdr-console using the external radio interface.

In the end, I made up my mind that if it was a choice between Logger32 and the SDR. I would forego the SDR and stay with Logger32.

If it were me, I'd simply connect the SDR to an antenna using an SDR Tx/Rx switch (I have read reports they provide in the order of 90dB isolation).

I think I'm going to investigate using the rx antenna jack on to 1000, effectively connecting the SDR straight to the antenna which I think will then work the way Rick's installation

Because the messages to the SDR where incorrectly formatted, the SDR did not QSY correctly.

I have one installed in the Yaesu, and SDR-console has to talk directly to the radio through Omnirig. then I set up logger 32 to talk to SDR-console through a virtual port.

Here's the radio debug window; and here's the slave debug window; I've changed to use a different USB to RS-232 adapter cable. 73, Chuck N0NC

Chuck, clearly that's your problem, but I can't duplicate it here by simulation. I have been through the code line by line but don't see anything wrong. I assume that the radio debug window monitoring

I even slowed the baud rate on both ends to 4800, (same as the ft1000mp), but still get erratic results. N0NC

I changed it 100 ms, and then 200 ms as you asked, same result erratic data sent to SDR 73, cHUCK N0NC

Chuck, another step closer, but still not quite there. Notice that the commands are unstable - Some are FA07xxxx, some are 007xxxx, and some are FA00007xxxx. If the FT-1000 on 40M, they should all be

Step 1 Done Step 2 Done nothing happens Step 3 a. yes b. yes c. d. sdr-cosole tunes to 7.030.005.625 e. SDR-COnsole recieves no rf 73, Chuck N0NC

Click APPLY. 2) With both the FT-1000 and the SDR running, open the Slave port debug window. You should see nothing hsppening.

Also I can't change modes on the ft1000mp field, sdr console keeps changing it right back. also sdr-console recieves no rf unless the Yaesu is talking to omni-rig.

... and to follow up, if/when you turn off slave polling, on the Slave Debug Window you should see only command messages from the radio to the SDR when the radio changes frequency/mode

This will turn off the polling of the SDR and temporarily allow you to focus on the commands from Logger32 to set the SDR frequency/mode.

In fact, it interferes with L32 controlling the rig (can't change modes ect.) until I close sdr-console.

Thanks Rick; I'll give that a try. I thought I had already, but I was changing so many things, I'll follow your example exactly. Been away for a few days at the VA hospital. I'll report back after I t

In my grasping at straws, I hook it up backwards, rig to SDR, and l32 to SDR and it works but backwards. It must be something with the SDR-console setup that I'm messing up.
