Title: Auto Band/Antenna Switching for Yaesu 8900?
Post by: WB4LCN on 2012-09-26, 22:18:16

I am remote with a TS-480 with a CAT connection for convering band data for an antenna switch. Whenever I change bands at the RCC Control location, the Radio, theu the CAT port send band data (thru Bandmaster III) switches the antenna automatically.

Is this same ability available for the Yaesu 8900? There's no CAT port, but can you get band data out of the Data port?

Thanks much!

You can do this if you add an Elecraft KRC2 to the installation and it will do your band switching for you.
