First time using the FT-897 on RTTY. No time prior to contest to do
system tests.
Sound card AFSK level into the DATA jack was too low to drive the FT-897
to full output above 20M. Fix was to jumper JP4 in the SignaLink SL-1.
(The SL-1 was designed for MIC and SPKR interface; the new SL-1+ is
designed for DATA/ACC jack interface.)
Yaesu FT-897 at 5 watts into a 5-MHz OCF 28-gauge insulated wire stealth
antenna up 40 feet in trees next to I-75 in downtown Atlanta industrial
area. SGC SG-237 autotuner. Tigertronics SignaLink SL-1 sound card radio
interface. WriteLog 10.44b with RTTYrite. Dell Latitude 650-MHz PIII
laptop, WinMe.
