It's my understanding, you can control the rig thru the CAT interface.
Meaning you cna send some data to command the radio to a freq and mode, but
you CAN NOT read back the status.   Therefore, any manual tuning or mode
changes will not be reflected in the software.

Hi, 

This data is already available via the CAT (RS232) interface on the 736, see
the owners manual for further details.

As for a piece of software that already does this very successfully,
at least for the Apple Macintosh, see MacLoggerDX from;

http://www.dogparksoftware.com/home.html

Sorry don't know any for the PC platform.

Hope this helps.


Sean.

Has anyone ever developed or heard of any mods to 'read' freq and mode data
from the FT-736R? I would like to interface it to contest software.
