General discussion / Kenwood TS-570 setup
« on: 2011-11-14, 14:30:01 »
Hi all:

Haven't posted in quite a while because everything is just working perfectly.
However, I'm changing my rig from a Yaesu FT-450 to a Kenwood TS-570Dg but I'm not sure on which connector on the Control RRC do I use for the mic input. Is it the large RJ-45, currently used by my MD-100A8X or the smaller one to the right when facing the Control RRC.
I'm also not sure if this is an RJ-8 or 9. Will I also have to change any jumpers in both the Control and Radio RRCs?
Other than setting the units to use Yaesu, the appropriate comm ports and the speed  in the web interfaces, my units worked out of the box.
I'm figuring I'll have to do the same for the Kenwood but I'm hoping I won't have to mess with any jumpers.
I didn't have to for the Yaesu. Worked right out of the box.

General discussion / Hand Mic Audio problems
« on: 2011-05-30, 23:44:44 »
Hi all:

A couple of weeks ago when I was putting my remote back on the air, I tried my standard Yaesu hand mic which came with the 450.
I forget the model # but when I plugged it in to the Control RRC, I went down stairs to the shack and enabled the monitor on my 450 to listen through head phones.
When I got my helper to key the mic and speak, all I heard was a kind of woshing sound but no voice.
My main mic is the MD-100A8X with all switches left in the default and I get excellent audio reports.
I have the audio codecs set the same on both ends. Could it be the mic it self?
When plugged directly into the rig, it works fine.  Both mics have the RJ-45 connectors.
I'm a little concerned as I might have to trade some items to try and get a broader range automatic tuner to tune my new G5RV when I install it, should the internal tuner in the FT-450 doesn't work.

Hi Roland and team:

Are there any plans to add a rig control add on to the RRC 1258 system?
I think it would be somewhat convenient to eliminate the HRD as an absolute necessary if you don't have the supported rigs with the remote head kits. 
This could take the form of a sub page on the Radio RRC page that you could click on and then see an interface vary similar to the Global Tuners on line receiver's interface.
Its Java based.

General discussion forum / Web Switch Questions
« on: 2011-05-10, 17:11:08 »
Hi All:

I'm looking at adding a 40/6M yagi down the road and I was wondering, instead of purchasing a 2 port auto tuner, would the web switch be a better choice?
Would I be able to use the Comm 1 port on my remote rig system to control the switching of the antennas?
Right now, my comm 2 port is in use along with the serial port on the back of the rig and it only has one of these. 
Is there another method to controlling the web switch if it does require the serial port on the back of the rig?
Ie: using the yaesu's band data out?

Hi Jan and the entire Microbit team:

Just want to thank you again for your patients.
Apparently, all I had to do was drop the http:// from my DynDns host name and it fixed it.
The DNS status also changed to an actual link on the radio RRC.

A little weird about not having the http:// in front of the host but if it works right? :)

Hi Jan:

Here's the info from the status page from my control RRC.
As you can see, the DNS status is unknown.
This is the same as the radio RRC.  Perhaps you can check the rest of the info to see if everything is correct.

Hi Jan:

On the Control RRC, the DynDns Status shows:
OK, remoterig.com = 193.202.110.185.
On the radio RRC, the DynDns status is unknown.

Thanks:

Michael
Note that I didn't ask about the DynDNS status, but about the DNS status, which you indeed did answer about though you call it "DynDNS" instead of just "DNS" ;)

If you enter your DynDNS hostname as SIP contact, which DNS status do you get then? (Should not be "OK, remoterig.com = 193.202.110.185" then, but something like "OK, yourdynsdomain=X.X.X.X"

Have you checked the "DNS status" on the Status Page?

General discussion / SIP Contact Host Problems
« on: 2011-05-09, 00:45:16 »
Hi all:

Well up and running again, everything seems to be running fine except I have a SIP contact host issue.
When I put in my DynDns assigned host, I don't get any audio and the remote isn't functioning.
However, when I replace the DynDns host with my ISP assigned IP, it establishes a connection and everything's fine. 
Any fix for this? The only thing I know to do now is watch for the IP change to update the SIP contact host field.

General discussion / Re: SIP Password
« on: 2011-05-05, 15:28:22 »
Hi Mitch:

I understand that on the Control RRC, you need the SIP contact and password so if I didn't have a SIP password set on the Radio RRC side you could still connect by just typing in my DynDns host even if you didn't have any other password info?
Ie: the Control RRC's SIP contact and password.  I'm going to leave it there because it is another layer of security but I was just curious because the Radio RRC, doesn't have a SIP contact field and I guess, the reason is that it doesn't do the contacting but its contacted by the Control RRC and this SIP password serves as the security layer for the entire device.

Hi Michael,

I also have an RRC. All I need is your DynamicDNS address, and I am connected. With a SIP
password, I am not connected, it is that simple.

1ST of all, I was talking about SIP. Can you hack SIP? 
I was just wondering because there isn't a SIP contact in the radio RRC's Radio settings so why have a SIP password? Now as there's a DynDns, setting which obviously you would secure.
Now on the Control RRC side, there's a SIP contact and password which makes sense there. Now let's say you could hack my routers, then I don't think a SIP password would keep you from doing damage.
 

But Mike should give me his DynamicDNS address, so that I can hack into his station!  ;)

That's what passwords are for!

General discussion / SIP Password
« on: 2011-05-04, 17:19:11 »
Hi All:

Is it neccessary to have a SIP password specified under the Radio RRC's radio settings?
Considering there's no SIP contact like in the Control RRC. You specify the host and password under the DynDns setting, figured this should do.

General discussion / Rig Control Add On
« on: 2011-05-03, 21:37:59 »
To the Remote Rig Development Team:
I was wondering how difficult it would be to add a web based rig control add on to the Control RRC's web page?
This interface could be similar in every way to the Global Tuners online receiver's interface. '
In other words, get rid of the HRD component all together for those of us who don't use the rigs with the separation kits such as the TS-480/IC-706 etc? 
This would also take care of the cross platform issues. IE: my main computer is an Imac but in order to run HRD, I have to duel boot into windows or use VmWare Fusion.
It would be nice to control my rig with my Mac or windows based laptop with out having to worry about installing drivers for USB to Serial adapters and such.
Thus far overall, I'm happy with my remote rig system. I know I'm having some issues with my connection right now but its probably another piece of equipment or a simple setting.
Just a suggestion and thanks.

Mike

Hi Jan:

Nope, its not showing up as a link.
DynDns Status on one line, then Error, Code 4 on the next line.
Note:
I'm running RRC-1258-CRC_v2.35_2011-03-17. Wondering if there's a bug there.
I also forgot to mention that I'm a blind user and both my Mac and windows screen readers do not tell me that the DynDns Status Error, Code 4 is a link.

Mike
You don't see a link in "DynDns status   Error, code 4"? It should be one there.
