FT991A with Swisslog

[EA3GCV]

Hi Guy,

First of all, you only have to set 2 stops bits when baud rate is 4800. For other baud rates use 1 stop bit.

You can't share a COM por with several applications at once unless you use a Virtual Port Serial Emulator (https://eterlogic.com/products.vspe.html). So if you have WSJT-X open and your transceiver works well, if you open Swisslog or other software where you have set the same COM port, CAT control won't work.

There is an easy solution which is using Omnirig (https://dxatlas.com/OmniRig/). Swisslog, WSJT-X, JTDX, MHSV and lot of software supports OmniRig. Simply install OmniRig, select your transceiver then set COm port settings for your FT-991A and select OmniRig in Swisslog and WSJT-X. You will have CAT control in all software with no conflicts at all.
