I think that's why, with Hyperterm, I can't set VFO A or VFO B

With hyperterm instructions 0R 1R and 2R set 0dB 10db and 20dB atten.
Each instruction just needs to end with [CR]
It doesn't require L and ATT used by rigctl.

With Hyperterm these modes are selected with A C U L N S X
Again each instruction just needs a single letter and end with [CR]

Can be written to or erased with Hyperterm, but I'm not concerned if 
rigctl can't do that.

With Hyperterm, frequency is set in MHz, not Hz, e.g. 7.07401 [CR}
It doesn't require the character F used by rigctl.

WSJT-X Settings/Radio/AOR AR3030 still gives an error with Test CAT

Maybe rigctl can not be made to work with the AR3030, which would be a 
shame given that it's a fine receiver.

Does rigctl go through a "translation process" to issue commands?
E.g. for the AR3030, F 707401 would get translated to 7.07401[CR} ?

I'm just getting back into radio after many years off the air. Maybe 
when I buy a more modern transceiver (I'm thinking Yaesu FT890) rigctl 
will work with that.
