This video will show how to adjust the Transmit Level on the FT897D . I was able to produce a clean PSK31 signal using the TX volume on the USB SignaLink and Digital Master 780.
This video shows the menu items in the FT-897D to change so it can communicate with your PC that is running Ham Radio Deluxe. Menu item 19 is CAT Rate.
I connected WSJT-X V2, JTAlert, HRD-V6-5, GridTracker V1-19 and sent out a CQ using FT8. SignaLink USB with 5 watts out into a top-fed Delta Loop. I run two instances of WSJT-X. JTAlert needs UDP port 2237. GridTracker uses UDP port 2238. The last half of video is edited to keep it short. I captured two monitor screens at a time. At 9.5 min I say Shift for setting Rcv frequency, I meant Left-Mouse-click.
This video shows how I connect the radio and software to get a JT9 QRP QSO with 5 watts from WA to HI using a Delta Loop antenna.
This video shows my FT8 QSO from WA to AZ on 20m with 5 watts. I am using my FT897, SignaLink, WSJT-X and JTAlert.
