![]() ![]() ![]() I have emailed the author to ask whether an upgrade to the software could give the option of going to the DX-Cluster or to SOTAWatch to list spots. It includes a waterfall display and a rolling DX Cluster listing, where clicking on an entry in DX Cluster immediately sets the 817 to that mode and frequency. The 817 companion transfers most FT817 options onto a smart phone or tablet screen. The Bluetooth adapter is available from several dealers - this is the one I used and got the device in just over a week rather than the predicted 6-8 weeks. ![]() The 817 companion Android software is available for €4.75 from google play (here: ). Those wondering whether this cheap adapter will also work with the repeater book software, it won't as the Repeater Book author has a contract with the company producing the more expensive "Blue Cat" adapter and the program code specifically looks for only this hardware. While not directly SOTA related software (at least not yet - see below), given that so many on this reflector have an FT-817, I thought I'd mention that this remote control software for the FT-817 works fine with the Blue Tooth adapter for the FT-817 which is available via eBay out of China for around €12. ![]()
