In VarAC - FM discussion forum
Hi, I've asked this question many, many times on here, on forums and general Q and A's and had so many different answers it is beyond belief. Even those involved in writing the software dont seem to be able to give a simple, straight answer. The question being, does or can it work on 2m and or 70cm, you would think a simple yes or no answer would suffice, however I've had 50% yes and 50% no, the yes have said things like "simply" copy the freq file and add the new frequencies, I' normally find when someone says"simply" it never works anyway, and what file are they talking about, I have had three different files suggested, none are you able to modify the frequency list, I have explained I have a 7300 Icom which should work at HF fine and has a sound card, also a 9700Icom, half the people say no it wont work using the 9700 as it has no sound card, the other half say yes it has a sound card and should work... I have asked several people using Varac already and they have no idea, in fact they just seem thankful that they managed to get it to work at all on HF, never mind VHF. So it seems no one actually knows for certain if it will work on VHF and if so how you would go about doing it, that includes bizarrely one of the software developers I managed to talk to. So any sensible ideas or suggestion very welcome, a yes or no would be a start. Many thanks G6CTX
