Has anyone 3d printed a mount for a RRC 1258? I looked on thingiverse and didn'y find one.

But could there be it seems that all it needs it for pins one and 2 to be connected?

In memory channel mode pressing the up or down buttons on the microphone doesn't change the channel but turning the select knob on the control works as expected. I think the mic is working properly as when plugged directly into the radio the buttons work as expected.

I'm using the FT-857 strapping headers supplied with the RRC-1258s but suspect that mic pins 1 & 2 need connecting

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Re: Yaesu FT 857D | Not powering up remotely

HI

send me as personal message the exported settings(Html) files from both units and a picture from each unit showing all straps and jumpers.

Is there a picture of thecorrect jumper setup for a FT-857D? The one on page 157 of the manual has totally confused me, it shows 5 jumpers in place but the table only says JMP3 should be connected.

Or do I just use these 2 headers, and are they interchangeable?

That'll teach me to rush! Correct radio config attached.

Will try a different mode to test that the remoterigs are communicating

Thanks Mitch, I was trying to proceed in small steps checking each stage.

Just doing the initial setup and thought I'd check that the remoterigs were connecting but I'm seeing Disconnected, is this expected with no radio gear attached, or have I done something wrong?
