[Rigserve-devel] Yaesu Backend Development

[Adam C. <car...@ca...>]

Hello list,

I've recently purchased a Yaesu FT-897D, and CT-62 control cable for it. 
Now all I need to do is get some software for it :)

I stumbled upon rigctl, which led me to rigserve.

I see that there isn't a Yaesu BE development in SVN yet, and I don't 
feel comfortable donating my brand new radio :) But I have got a little 
bit of Python experience, and have worked with (mainly IP) protocol 
analysis before so I wouldn't mind having a bash at writing a backed for it.

Is anyone else working on a Yaesu backend that I might be able to work with?

If not, I'll happily have a go at porting an existing (maybe icom

I also have:
 o Icom 718 - HF transceiver
 o Yaesu VX-7R - handheld transceiver (6M, 2M, 70cm)
 o Uniden Bearcat 396 - handheld digital scanner (receive from high HF 
bands up to 23cm I think).



Thanks in advance,
