Re: Serial port for logging and amp control

Thanks Scott.
I'm using the amp with an Icom 9100 and the CIV port for band change. I will go with the serial port on the back of the amp for control and the logger will do the changes in the control program.

Serial port for logging and amp control

Almost 10 years ago, I had a Flex 3000 and used DDUtility for interfacing interfaces external to the radio. I'm using AC Log and have an SPE FA-1K amp I would like to use. Suggestions and advice are welcome.

Re: Not a happy camper

Hi Scott, Pure Signal is where I want to be.I have the Xtronic parts on the way. I am not real confident I can update the firmware as I have not been in the Annan community while the development was moving along. I'm coming at this as a total Noob. I think I can update the display by myself. I haven...

Re: AMD RYZEN 5
