We have an old 1k2 Packet UHF Digi in our region that will soon be switched to Winlink. It uses a different RX and TX frequency. I wanted to test Packet Commander with it today, but I found that I can only set a simplex frequency. Is it useful to create the possibility in Packet Commander (possibly RadioMail e.g..) to be able to set different RX and TX frequencies? Or is it recommended to switch the node to simplex? 73 de DL1GKK.com
Interesting. I didn’t expect this type of configuration to be used for packet. Exposing separate RX and TX frequencies in the UI would add a lot of complexity for what seems like a niche use case.
If you’re using a TNC like a Mobilinkd, or you disable CAT control, the app will simply use whatever frequencies the radio is configured for.
TNX, I will try it. I think it would be the best to set a node to a simplex QRG.
Hi Georges… I try to disable CAT control, but I find no setup point in RadioMail, Packet Commander and my VERO VGC N-76 that I use. How can i do this?
I misspoke. Disabling CAT control is only available in the B.B. Link adapter for the TH-D74/5, not in the app itself. So as of now, indeed single frequency is the only way with the VGC or UV-PRO.
Ok, TNX for your Info. 73
