Using Omnirig, it might also be possible to create a copy of FT-2000.ini named FT-2000VFOB.ini, then edit it so that it always does the VFO B commands instead of the VFO A commands. Then tell Omnirig that Rig 1 is an FT-2000 and Rig 2 is an "FT-2000VFOB", both using the same COM port. Win-Test will then treat VFO A as Radio 1, and VFO B as Radio 2, and the VFOs could be on different bands.<br>
<br>But I'm not sure if Omnirig alone is sufficient; I don't know if it lets you control two different "rigs" on the same COM port. Instead, you might have to use something like the microHAM Router program to assign two virtual COM ports to the same Radio, then configure OmniRig to use the two microHAM virtual serial ports, one for Rig 1, the other for Rig 2.<br>
<br>Someone highly motivated to make VFOB work more like a second radio (for SO2V support) should experiment with this and let us know how it works.<br><br>73,<br>Bob, N6TV<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Mar 10, 2011 at 3:53 PM, Bob Wilson, N6TV <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:n6tv@arrl.net">n6tv@arrl.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am just setting my station up for this weekend's RSGB
Commonwealth Contest.</div>
<div><br>
<div>I am using WT4 version 4.7.0, communicating with my FT5k
via a micro KEYER II.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If the FT5k is not in SPLIT mode, the band indication in
WT4 is the band for the live VFO - that's OK.</div>
<div>However, in SPLIT mode, it does the following:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I am running on VFO-B, ie both VFO-B RX & TX and TX
lamps illuminated on the 5k, and also have the VFO-A Rx
enabled, the band info is again from VFO-B, which is OK.</div>
<div>However, if I am running on VFO-A, and the VFO-B Rx is also
enabled, WT4 takes the band info from VFO-B, which is NOT OK.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I want to operate SO2V, running on VFO-A and also
listening (on another band) on VFO-B, I will get my QSOs
logged on the wrong band. I would expect WT to take the band
info from the VFO that is TXing. Why doesn't it? Is there a
setting I can change to fix this?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks.<br>
<br>
