Greetings,

Has anyone successfully been able to use the SunSDRDX and Acom 1200S with the AT04 auto tuner? I use the Acom 1200S and ATU combination with my FTDX101MP and it works flawlessly, I would just like to utilize the same combo with my SunSDRDX with complete automation. The other threads utilize a CAT BCD band data cable connection that is good only for amplifier operation without the ATU. The connection between the Yaesu and the AMP/Tuner combination uses a serial (RS232) CAT cable as the tuner has to know the radio transmit frequency in order to switch to the correct band segment. The SunSDRDX utilizes a 15 pin D-sub and not a RS232 or USB connection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

mir OFFLINE Posts: 31 Thank you received: 1	I did not remove the DB9 connector I just made an adapter with DB9 Female on the DB15 3 row. If I am not mistaken, USB-RS232 converters with a DB15 3 row connector are not available on the market. Do not use a VGA cable as it is not suitable for such use. You must however pay attention that Pin2 of ACOM is assigned RX and PIN3 the TX signal with Pin5 for the 0Volt (see ACOM manual). Hi Arturo

mir OFFLINE Posts: 31 Thank you received: 1	With another USB<>RS232 cable connected to the power amplifier's RS232 (DB9 Female) port, you can use a small programme written by SM7IUN to remotely control your amplifier. You can find the necessary information here. 73 de Arturo, HB9MIR sm7iun.se/station/acom/ Thanks also to Bjorn, SM7IUN for writing this little program.
