Dave,
Currently there is only one way to get band data from either Flex radio and
that is via CAT. The hooks to do direct band decoding are in the FLEX5000
(FlexWire) but have not yet been implemented.
Many of the logger programs like N1MM and HRD have decoders built in that

Art,
I'm not sure what you mean by procedure for using HRD with the F5K.
Possibly the confusion may be that there is no F5K selection on the CAT tab
(I plan to change that to FlexRadio instead of model numbers) so just
select SDR-1000 and follow the virtual port setup found in the Knowledge
Base.
Paul,
Jose' is a little confused. There may be no F5K selection on the CAT tab at
the present time but HRD will work just fine using the SDR-1000 as the radio
type. I use my F5K with HRD every day without problems.

I replied directly to you with a relatively long message before I saw you
had posted this on the reflector. I repeat it here less the attachments.

Jim,
Yes, that is the basic strategy for all CAT commands in the current
architecture. Some of the console properties were in
I don't see that here on either the SDR1K or the FLEX5000A. SVN1652, FA-66,

Ken,
The CAT ZZSM command reads the S-meter and returns the current level in
approximately 0.5 dBm increments. A small program that would poll the meter
and store the results in an Excel or Access table should not be too
difficult.

Bill,
Thanks for reporting the problem, it was a bug and it happened in my last
round of clean-up on the CAT code a few days ago. I forgot to account for
non-Flex modes in the Kenwood transceiver status command IF;. I have a
potential fix for the problem and am waiting for response from other
I had one episode of my system locking up while switching from DigiU to USB
(which switches VAC off) but no other problems. Worked some PSK31 without
difficulty. Bug report filed.

Rob,
Welcome to the group.
I have had RFI problems in the past with my SDR-1000 but managed
to cure them with ferrite clamp-ons. I could not get them tamed
when using the USB adapter so I stuck with the parallel interface.
I have had no problems at all with the FLEX5000A other than getting
All,
I just posted SVN1585 that adds 34 new CAT commands and modifies a few old
ones to bring the command set up to date. The new CAT Dictionary is posted
in the Documentations folder and I have added a new CAT Command Cross
Reference (mostly for my own sanity :)) of CAT commands to radio
What was the anwser? I have the same problem.
