Mike/Bill,

I tested “Rig" split with the FT-897D using the FT-857 setting. It works.
“Split” mode is indicated on the radio’s panel, and, on the “B” VFO, 
the correctly offset TX frequency is set and used in Transmit.
I’ve always used “Fake It” with the 897, since, from early on in my 
use of WSJT-X, “Rig” split did not work correctly (in ways I don’t now 
remember).
I’ll run with it this way, with the Pi and the Mac, and report any 
anomalies.

Thanks.

It's not a regression...the FT857 has never had set_vfo or get_vfo enabled so 
never should have worked.

The FT857 does have set/get_vfo but it uses a vfo toggle just like the FT897.
If the FT857 is working well with this we can implement the same thing for the 
FT897. 
Are you operating in rig split mode?  Can you test with the FT857 and tell us 
if rig split works OK?

Hi Chuck,
 
that's disappointing, I though the Hamlib regressions had been dealt with. 
Fortunately the FT-857 and FT-897 are identical from the CAT control 
perspective, so carry on using that model. Clearly some difference has crept 
into Hamlib for one and not the other.
