VHF Afedri how to select 2nd RX?


Conrad, PA5Y
 

Hello all I am thinking of using my VHF Afedri for the QO-100 downlink. I cannot seem to change to RX2 which is the VHF RX? How is this achieved? I am using a LAN connection. If you have an Afedri LAN-IQ I should imagine it is the same method to select VHF/RX2

Which Afedri do you have?

I have 3.

 

  1. I have a normal Afedri AFE822x which has no VHF RX
  2. I have an Afedri VHF 822x which has 1 channel with a VHF converter
  3. I have an Afedri LAN-IQ which is the same as the above

 

I have noticed some very strange behaviour.

 

Let’s start with HF only.

 

I cannot change bands unless I use the memories, favourites or use CAT and Omnirig. Say I was tuned to 14.250MHz, the correct connector is selected – RX1

 

Now if I enter 21.150MHz in receive window the RX display window changes but the radio does not QSY.

 

If I do the same with CAT and Omnirig then all is OK, similarly if I use favourites all is fine.

 

For VHF if I use a favourite in the range above 30MHz then the correct connector is automatically selected. However say I chose the 70cms favourite I end up at 435MHz, I cannot tune down to 432 MHz from there unless I use CAT and Omnirig. Surely this is not intended, I am pretty sure it was not like this before.
