This has nothing to do with the CAT not working, other than were the cat working it would change the freq and mode

Please do and again are you certain that no other software is using the USB port on your computer?

Terry, I just started HRD Ver 6+ It connected and read my radio's frequency and I could turn the dial and it followed my radio. I put in W1AW and it looked up the address fine.

Check what port and baud rate HRD is using and replicate it in Omnirig

If it still does not work then download a fresh version of Omnirig and install by right clicking the install file and select 'run as an administrator's

If still not working send me a support request after having set debug to trace mode- details on our web site about how to do that.

My email is on QRZ

I will check it in the morning if you send one.

BTW looking up a call sign has absolutely nothing to do with CAT control it just proves your linked to QRZ via the internet

As there has been no response to this thread for a week I assume the issue is now resolved?


If it isn't then please let us try to assist further!


If it is resolved then it would be helpful to know what caused the problem :D
