Does anyone know if band data available via the LPT port supports VHF bands other than 6m? If so, where can I find the decoded output truth table?<br></blockquote><div><br>Win-Test follows the Yaesu standard, as documented <a href="http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Interfaces#Band_Data">here</a>. The Yaesu standard also defines 144 and 440, as shown <a href="http://k0lee.com/ft100faq.html#banddata">here</a>, but that may not be sufficient for your needs, and it's possible that Win-Test doesn't support those bands (please measure the LPT pins with a voltmeter and let us know what you discover).<br>
<br>If you use a microHAM box, you can have it activate up to 16 individual ACC port pins, one for each band from 160m to 1296 MHz. That might be a better approach for serious VHF all band contesting with automatic switching.
