Log4OM

Hi,

My goal is to use CAT commands with my Yaesu FT-891 and Log4OM, using hamlib.

Log4OM contains hamlib and with the "rigctl.exe" contained in the Log4OM\hamlib directory, I can see "Yaesu FT-891" with a "Stable" status : But, in Log4OM\CAT Management\RIG Model, "YAESU FT-891" is missing.

I wonder if I am looking in the good folder or if the list used in Log4OM is not synchronized with hamlib. I think to this second possibility because, if I search another model (FT-991 for example), the versions are different:

• Using rigctl in the Log4OM\hamlib directory, the version is 0.23.5:

• In Log4OM, the version is 0.22.4 Beta:

Could you help me to explain me why the supported models are not the same between Log4OM hamlib folder and Log4OM rig models? Is it possible to have "Yaesu FT-891" in the rig models list or is it possible to help you in order to support and test this model with Log4OM?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Hi again,

I have just read on another post something like a workaround (as YAESU FT-891 is not in the RIG Model) and it works, using this settings:

• RIG Model: Hamlib NET rigctl 0.3 Beta | 2

• Parameter String: --model=136 --rig-file=COMXXX --serial-speed=XXXX --port=4532 --set-conf=stop_bits=1 --ptt-file=COMXXX --ptt-type=RIG -v

Notes:

• "--model=136" is the hamlib model ID corresponding to YAESU FT-891.

• "COMXXX" should be replaced with the enhanced COM port used ("COM6" for example).

• "--serial-speed=XXXX" needs to be changed with the speed set in the YAESU FT-891

So, I hope "YAESU FT-891" will be directly in the RIG models in a future release

Did you try Omnirig?

Hi Terry,

It seems Omnirig can support only one thread, reason why I have preferred to use hyamlib.

I can assure you that Omnirig supports multithreading providing you install it correctly to 'Run as an administrator'

I run my Elecraft and Icom radios using Log4OM, SDR-Radio consul, WSJTX, bandmaster and CW Skimmer all using Omnirig simultaneously
