Specifications
Using a pair of transceivers
Two transceivers can be used. They must then be defined under the TRX1 and TRX2 Setup’s
tabs only (in that case running two different ICOM Transceivers on one com port is
supported). However, the interface with the transceiver used for transmit is simplified:
Commands must always be done from TRX-Manager by using the >VFO button
The VFO> function is not usable to read the TX frequency (except for ICOM Transceiver)
Manual frequency change of the transmitter is taken into account by TRX-Manager
only if the sub Transceiver is an ICOM !
Moreover (and this is the main limitation), the correction of the TX frequency during transmit
is generally not supported.
Except these limitations, the transceivers are locked between them by the program and the
operation is practically the same one as with a satellite transceiver.
Warning
TRX-Manager does not check that you are not transmitting in the RX band !
Standard transceiver in Split mode
Such a configuration is supported, including the Trace mode as well as TX and RX in the same
band but you are advised of the following limitations:
Of course simultaneous receive and transmit is not possible!
While TRX-Manager shifts the TX frequency, the RX VFO is used as a temporary buffer
(except with Kenwood transceivers) and receive may disturbed. To minimize the
inconvenience, it is advised to choose a large Step (100 Hz or more) and to use with a
Satellite whose uplink frequency is lower than downlink frequency.
