General discussion forum / IC-901???

« on: 2022-12-24, 00:07:50 »

I just finished setting up an Icom 2820 and I’m wondering if anyone has attempted the same configuration with an IC-901? I have one with the full complement of band modules that would be cool to set up as a remote.

General discussion forum / Head & Mic cable length?

« on: 2011-01-21, 18:20:04 »

Anyone experemented with running long CAT5 cables between the Head/Mic and the control box? I am building a new house and I am considering putting a control box with a patch panel in the structured wiring panel and wall plates in a 2 or 3 locations around the house (where I have already run pairs of CAT5 - in some cases 2 pair) - office, hobby room, etc. Then I would just move the control head and the mic around to different locations as wanted.

Updated rig unit no problem (dual RX units). Cannot update control unit. Progress bar goes to between 2 and maybe 6 segments and then times out with an error message unable to update firmware. Tried second unit - same result. Tried earlier versions of firmware - no luck. Tried one version earlier setup manager, still no luck. I am at a loss...

I'll try another machine tomorrow

General discussion forum / Transparent Mode?

There doesn't seem to be any documentation. Is there a PTT signal from a mic plugged into the remote box at the radio box? Any additional singaling available in either direction?
