VarAC and Yaesu ft-1000mp mark-v no ptt or cat
I am using a Yaesu FT-1000MP Mark-V radio and used windows 8.1 then windows 10 home. I have used VARA (free version) and RMS Express successfully ( PTT and Freq Chg). For VarAC I cannot PTT or change Frequencies. Using VARA HF 4.6.4, VarAC 6.2.4, without Omnirig and with Omnirig 2.1. I tried PTT, VOX, Omnirig ways to connect.
I use a separate folder for VARA HF and VarAC (VARA2). Changed the tcp ports and pointed to the VARA2 folder. I used two laptops and same results. Tried using USB and USB-D modes without success. Any thoughts?
Tnx N9KO

The FT1000 has no audio input on the 5 pin packet plug in USB, only in FM, LSB and RTTY. the output to the sound card works ok on this connection. wen you select PKT the rig switch only to LSB or FM.
so i put the audio input to the rig over the phone patch plug, works fine in USB. this is also the microphone circuit, so disconnect the mike or be quiet. do not use the compressor or filtering, let the souncard do the job.
