Icom 7300 CAT control does not synchronize

[DF2AK]

Hi Jordi,

many thanks for you quick reply. I think I have all settings right:

Transceiver: Icom
Start automatically: yes
Show TX-Status: yes
Icom Adress: 94
Search TX adr: no
Polling time: 1

Speed: 19200
Parity: None
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Flowcontrol:
  DTR/DSR: no  force stop: no
  RTS/CTS: yes force stop: no
  Software send: no
  Software receive: no
  Xon char: 17
  Xoff char: 19

I made screenshots, but don't know how to post them.

As i said, it works one when the connection is started. After that the frequency and mode doesn't change.

CAT has worked with my Kenwood like a charm so far. But with the IC7300 it just won't update. I suppose something with the polling is not right?


OmniRig isn't really an option. My notebook is pretty slow and I'm running Swisslog on Windows and Linux. Linux is much faster. So I configure with windows and when every works there, i transfer the settings to Linux, which i use primarily because of performance. This worked with everything so far. Which is pretty outstanding i must say.

With Windows OmniRig will probably work and is a good idea i agree. But i don't know if or how it will be with Linux. And since at the moment i'm not using anything besides Swisslog, its Ok to use it standalone.
So thats why I prefer to only use Swisslog to communicate with the rig.
