Rig control ICOM IC-707

[KM4SLW]

I have an old rig, an ICOM IC-707. I can connect using other logging programs OK via Hamlib. I cannot get Log4OM to connect to my radio using Hamlib. And my rig is not listed in Omnirig, I have tried some other models but none that I tried worked.

I have attached a screen image of the CAT Management screen.

Any suggestions?

Hi, please in this screen set the debug level to TRACE. You can see errors in the black DOS Windows where hamlib runs.
From here you can provide us more info

OK. Attached is a text file containing some data I captured from the TRACE. It just runs and runs until I kill it. Please let me know if you need more, or anything else.

Thanks,
Steve

The answer is strange... the rig seems answering but...
Can you ENABLE DTR flag?

[KM4SLW]

The rig DOES answer and connect but will not stay connected. It will display the current frequency from the rig. But as soon as I move the VFO knob I get a message that the radio is not responding. I've tried muiltiple combinations of DTR on, DSR on, etc. Nothing I've tried works.

Let me check if there is a suitable rig on Omnirig that could mimic IC-707

I tried Omni-Rig again and I'm able to connect when selecting ICOM model IC-725a. Looks like it's working, connection has not dropped while doing some testing. Hopefully it will continue to work!

Thanks,

I wonder the day all radio manufacturers will use a shared standard for CAT commands...
Great news
