    Setting up VarAC HF & FM instructions needed

    in VarAC discussion forum

    I've been running VarAC HF successfully for weeks but now want to add VarAC FM capability. I already have both VARA HF and VARA FM modems working well with WinLink but I'm having problems figuring out how to successfully add VARA FM capability to VarAC. It looks to me that if I change the VarAC Setup page from HF to FM, I lose all the HF configurations ???? Some help or pointing to a help link would be appreciated. Can't seem to find the answers in the existing material. I am NOT intending to run both at the same time.

    Yeah the best way is to make a second folder and copy the VarAC over and run that for VARA FM on it's own for the time being. I do that here and it works just fine with 4 instances of VarAC.

    Hi @e97439 Ed.

    What @NC3Z Gary is the right way. As you probably have different RIGS for FM and HF, and you have different PTT method, its best to have separate configurations available.


    If you insist on a single VarAC install, you can have 2 different configuration files (VarAC.ini) one for each (FM/HF) and just rotate the 2 files.

    I posted a quick manual in the Manuals section on how to setup multiple instances. https://www.varac-hamradio.com/forum/manuals/english-manuals-by-varac-community
