The FT-817 will tune to both 144 and 160 although the sensitivity seems to be down at 160. It is still good enough to receive on 2320. Europe is authorized 2320. The US is not. The US is authorized 2304. Europe is not, at least not all countries. So I have to transmit on 144 and receive on 160. Europe has to transmit on 2320 and receive on 2304. Some operators use transverter band switching but not all transverters can switch their LO on the fly. They need to restart.
I use Fake It because I have found that Yaesu does not seem to like Split. Even in Fake it, it seems to be lost for half a second when switching doing Doppler tracking. I usually only use the FT817 on 2304. I use the TS-2000x GPS locked on all the other bands. The TS-2000x cannot tune to 160 MHz. I am not sure about other rigs. > > On Feb 17, 2023 at 1:11 PM, <Black Michael (mailto:mdblac...@yahoo.com)> > wrote: > > > > > > Would sound like you just need a wider split frequency capability. > > > > So you could run +16,000,000 or such. > > > > Perhaps I can add a capability in Hamlib for a VFO A or VFO B or VFO Main or > VFO Sub offset value. > > > > Then you could add a file called "hamlib_settings.json" which would look > something like this: > > > > > > { > > "config": { > > "offset_vfob": "16000000" > > } > > } > > > Or offset VFOA the other way > > "offset_vfoa": "-16000000" > > > > > You would set up on 144 normally and anytime VFOB gets set it would add 16MHz > to the requested frequency. > > @ > > So that should track doppler just fine. > > > > Mike W9MDB > > > > > > > > > > > > > On Friday, February 17, 2023 at 11:41:12 AM CST, Donhawbaker via wsjt-devel > <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > I was wondering if there is a way that I can cross band on 2304/2320 using > 144/160 and still have Doppler control?
