Thanks for the video. Really helped setting everything up including when you entered the W5RGV-11 (06:56) I entered W5RGV-1 to make my connection. Thanks & 73, KI5DOG
Hi Joe, K5QW, I have the paid version of Vera FM, connected to Kenwood TS2000 via Signalink. I can connect to Vera FM just fine, but I cannot do the Autotune to any of the nodes down here (Weslaco). I do have the record level set so Vera FM shows 1:00 o'clock. When I start a connection to a node it fails without much info. Any ideas? Kim
There is a USB driver on ICOM's site. Unplug the radio from your computer and then install the driver you downloaded from ICOM and then plug the cable between the radio and computer and hopefully that will get the frequencies to change correctly for you. Also, I think there is a setup option in the VARA FM menu that lets you enter your radio info. so it talks to your radio. I hope this helps. 73
I have not run into this problem so I probably can't help. The KISS TCP are defaulted in the VARA FM program. If you are not connecting, my only guess is that the port is in use by another program and maybe try changing the port number maybe up one digit in both VARA FM and the Winlink session. Again, this is just a guess. Maybe someone that has experienced this problem will see this and reply and correctly resolve the problem. Good luck.

I’ll be doing this as soon as my DigiRig arrives. Saving your video as a favorite.
Thanks and 73,

I'm going to guess that this requires a soundcard to use VARA and not the built in TNC in something like a Kenwood D72?
Yes, this requires a soundcard interface to use VARA. A conventional TNC does not work.
how do i get winlink to control my IC9700 frequency? everything works but changing the frequency

KISS TCP port is not connected to VARA TNC. How can we solve this problem? Can you help me?
