I am brand new to WRL and trying to get my Flex 8600 to work with WRL CAT ver 1.0.7

Using Mac iBook with Marcus SmartSDR - port set to 5010 in SmartSDR and WRL

Shows connected but no frequency displayed

Flex 8600 remote but on my local network

FlexRadio SmartSDR ā€¦ Slice A selected

@WW4GA Iā€™m not familiar with the flex but other users on here have it setup and working.

Here is a link: CAT for Flex Radio

Which radio option did you select? Iā€™m using the Flex Radio 6xxx option and was able to connect. Then set your port to SliceA in your cat control in the radio.

Thanks Patrick

I had it set using the FlexRadio SmartRadio Slice A as the Radio Model

Changing to FlexRadio 6xxx it now is working

I appreciate your help

Does the S meter work on your installation?

If you are refering to the S meter within the WRL Cat Control app then no, not really. Iā€™m not sure if it was intended to actually work. I think it goes down to S0 when the radio is actually connected and then the frequency populates.

@W7IB it must be something with Flex radios - the S Meter does work for my ICOM 7300.
