5/15/2023 0 Comments Ham deluxe software![]() ![]() Is Ham deluxe the way to go? (kinda spendy, but I'll do it if it's the right thing, I assume it'll work on my 991 when it arrives too so it'll be worth it in the long run) I feel like I have done my work and earned a bit of relief (FT8 is a fair bit of work without cat control (it isn't too bad, and I can do it now though :)) So, now I have a cable capable of utilizing Cat control, for the first time. ![]() I wasn't going to try it with my 818, but, I had a NET last night that required some very fast frequency/MODE changes and I had a short time to get them all in there (filled the memory 100%), so, I finally went and bought a programing cable, and since I was doing it, I just added the rt systems software, the cost difference was negligible. I am, just this very minute, using this as a home base station (not for long, ft991a is incoming this month). I have learned to program all of the features without cat control, some are super easy, some are more work, but i feel like it is beneficial to be able to run a radio such as this without a computer interface or internet available. I took the harder road (but more beneficial i believe and learned most of the in's and outs (for the last year + ) I use it for HF, VHF/UHF, FT8 and JS8Call, Winlink/winmor and will be heading to cw shortly.
