I have just tried SD (version V11.14) for the first time, and am
having trouble with rig control.
I have an FT817. There is no FT817.SD file, but I have convinced
myself that the FT897 commands are sufficiently compatible. I have
checked the commands in the FT897.SD file against the FT817 manual,
and I think they should work.
The effect I get when I set it up is that the received frequency is
tracked correctly in yellow at the bottom of the SD screen, and seems
to be shown correctly if I produce a Cabrillo log. However the current
BAND does not follow when I change frequency.
The only exception to this seems to be that if I select the 17m band
on the way from 20m to 15m, the band selection in SD changes to 160m.
But there it stays.
The manual commands for selecting bands seem to work.
Does anyone have any clues to what I might have done wrong? Is there
something I've missed to link up the frequency display and the band
selection?
