Thanks Mike. I will consider the alternatives. Perhaps St. Knick will deliver a new radio toy on Xmas morning.

Mike - Thanks for the quick reply. Is there any reason I could not utilize the ACC connector on the 706 for AF_IN, AF_OUT & PTT?  Are the levels compatible? I would, of course, still use the REMOTE jack for CI-V.
If this is acceptable, I could use any ICOM radio with an ACC port and one RCC1258MkII/RCC Micro pair.

General discussion / RRC1258MkII & RRC Micro - no audio

« on: 2015-12-11, 21:02:11 »

Help please. I received the RRC-1258MkII and RRC Micro combo a few weeks ago. I have been attempting to get it working all week with limited success. Everything works, as far as I can tell (hear clicking from radio when change bands), but very weak audio on PC speakers or headset. I scoured the forum and found similar issues reported by several folks, but answers are unclear.

My setup . . .

RRC-1258MkII connected to IC-706Mk2G with modified OPC-581 cable (verified correct)

Control PC on local LAN with 1274B dongle

Ports 13000-13002 forwarded to RRC-1258 in router

Serial connectivity is OK - HRD controls radio (hear radio relays clicking when changing bands)

I hear very weak audio on PC when tuned to strong signal

Status of RRC-1258 shows "UDP cmd status  Error(0)" indicating failure of UDP
communication.

I also notice that 1274B does not show up in Device Manager.

I understand Mike has a networking guide that may shed some light on this problem - please send.

My system -

PC: Dell D630
OS: Vista Ultimate
