TS-590S Twin setup: No memory channels or split operation

[HB9BJL]

I use a TS-590S Twin setup with my RRC-1258 MkII. This works fine, but the M>V memory channels and the SPLIT function doesn't work. I can live without memory channels but the split function is essential to work Dxpeditions. Is there a way to enable it ?

Hi

The TS-590 twin fucntion was introduced 2014, I can't belive that no one has noticed that split is not working since then.

We do not have any TS-590 so we can not test

Split operation with TS-590S is working very well at me.

Hello Willi,
thank you for your reply. The problem was finally solved after performing a Full Reset on both Transceivers while they were not not connected with Remoterig (press and hold A/B and switch TS-590S on, release both, then press again A/B).  The Split and the TF-Set functions work fine now.

Hello Willi & all,
unfortunately, the Split function does not work when the twin TS-590S are connected between the home site and the remote station.  I have verified this several times, also by exchanging the Transceivers. The firmware is 2.05. Downgrading to versions 2.03 and 2.00 did not help. They can be found in the Groups.io TS-590 Forum.

I suppose this has something to do with the data transfer rate. Instead of Split, using RIT helps but it is more complicated to tune to the correct frequency.
