I found your IC-7300 commands for MMSSTV and am now using them on my IC-7200. Great to be able to change bands with a click.
Speaking of which… Do you know about flrig? Once you set up your rig in that, you can then use WSJT-X , fldigi and FT8Call from it, using FLRig as the transceiver. Very nice.
BTW, have you tried FT8Call? I find FT8 unsatisfying (although I see your entries in QRZ). FT8Call allows QSOs of unlimited length, albeit slow as there are only 13 chars/frame. Anyway it’s a new mode and one that’s worth exploring. Still under development, and many suggestions coming from the 5000 users (so far).
Ah, the email address doesn’t have vk3 in the username. Glad the MMSSTV page was helpful!
I have used flrig, but only for the ubitx, I find the built in support for the 7300 in each of those programs good enough to just set them up in each. Had I been setting everything up at once I may have used flrig for it instead though, it seems to work well.
FT8call (JS8Call now I guess. hehe I forgot to answer this message for a while, sorry.) I have downloaded it, and had a look but I haven’t found a lot of activity yet, but I did see some. I haven’t had a chance to really try it out yet as my radio time is somewhat limited at the moment as we had a baby 5 months ago so I have had to change my priorities somewhat.
I posted this to ajnin.nad3kvnull@nad3kv but it bounced.
