What's the problem with the Perl binding, David? Can you be a bit more 
specific? Does the Perl interpreter generate any warnings?

I've been using hamlib via the Perl bindings for a few years now, and it works 
OK. Do make sure you have 'swig' (and possibly the swig-dev' package) 
installed before you compile hamlib...

It does not generate warnings, however if I set up YFKtest to work with 
ts-480 the litle indication "PC" disapears from display of radio. If I 
set up YFKtest with ts-850sat all works fine.

Yes, I have both, without it would be impossible to work with ts-850sat, 
isn't it ? :)

However with rigctl ts-480 works fine, as you can see:

ct1drb <at> linux-qfx0:~/yfktest> rigctl -m 228 f v

Re: Ts-480 and speed.

Hello Wilbert,

only to correct one sentence from me, when I wrote that indication "PC" 
disapears from display of rig is not true, in fact when I start YFKtest 
it is on, however if I write down 21005, to qsy rig, it does not work. 
With ts-850sat it works fine.

Best 73s.

Re: Ts-480 and speed.

OK. This problem has nothing to do with the hamlib Perl bindings.
'yfktest.pl' uses a system call to the 'rigctl' program to talk and listen to 
the rig.

My suggestion would be: try setting the QRG on the 480 manually. From rigctl 
use the 'F' command to see if the rig goes off-line as a result, which is 
what you say happens with YFKtest.

If this works OK, then obviously hamlib and the hamlib TS-480 back-end are OK. 
It may be a YFKtest bug, and perhaps you should Email Fabian.

HTH...

Wilbert, ZL2BSJ

PS: You can set a baudrate on the 'rigctl' statement in the <contestname>.yfk 
file, use the -s option.

I've just found the latest version 0.0.4 does use the Perl bindings, which  
works fine with my trusty old IC-725. Setting the frequency doesn't appear to 
be working yet.

However with my ts-850sat it works perfectly, can qsy without problems.

Yes, it is working very fine.

Well, I told Fabian about it, but quite strange is that YFKtest-0.0.4
works pretty fine with my ts-850sat, so we thought that is a hamlib
problem instead a YFKtest problem.

Re: Ts-480 and speed.

Hello Wilbert,

hello again.

Only to inform you that Fabian did an experimental version of YFKlog, 
with perl binding, (I asked it :) ) and it has same behavior as 
YFKtest-0.0.4:

does not work with ts-480 but works fine with ts-850sat.

Again, could it be a compilation problem?

Best 73s.

Make that 'F' instead of 'f'.

...because the rigctl program finished.

Try running 'rigctl -m 228' and then (from the rigctl prompt) set the 
frequency with 'F 14014790'. Now query the rig with 'f' a few times. If that 
works, then the backend is working and the TS480 problems are most likely an 
application bug.

Re: Ts-480 and speed. [solved]

Hello Wilbert,

tks for your email.

Only to say, and tks, that problem is gone, I did a clean up concerning 
hamlib and now ts-480 is working pretty fine with perl.

Tks for all help and best 73s.
