Awesome software really when you think about it, no need for an actual hardware tnc. There’s not too many videos or information on line about this software, thanks for your review…. Have you tried the Chess or Checkers with the sound modem software it would be cool to have a game via vhf or hf packet.
Thank you for the video. I am trying to use Winlink via P2P packet for the next drill, and wanted to know the mode setting on the 991A for the transmission. I saw one article referencing the use of DATA-USB and another referencing FM DATA. Would you tell me the correct mode setting on the Yaesu 991A? Thanks.
Hi Thomas, Packet operation is typically done on VHF/UHF FM. The proper setting for that would be FM DATA. If you were using Vara HF then it would be DATA-USB. Hope that helps, Stu AG6AG
@@AG6AG Thanks and makes perfect sense. Topics that I would like you to consider 60 meter skywave EnComm operations and a DIY or simple set up 60 meter antenna.

Wonderful video thank you! The digital world of armature radio is not kind to those wanting to get into get into it. Quck question, I am assuming there is a option for using a Digi Rig Mobile sound card? 73 from Washington State
Hi Charlie, You can use any sound card. The issue gets a little foggy with PTT. Although you can always turn on VOX, it's much nicer to setup a PTT signal out of the sound device. Thus my recommendation of the Signalink hardware. But there are lots of kits and other devices out there that will do the trick! Stu AG6AG
Great try and Really close so that if someone has some HAM knowedge he/she should be able to make the occasional leaps. "Leaps" are necessary because there are just a couple things you leave out. First, it would be nice rather than claim through the magic of video you have a TNC. What is a TNC and how much are they? "Video" has nothing to do with anything and is simply misleading to say so and confusing at best for the newbie. So fixing this wouldn't take much, but it would make your effort here a lot more effective and folks might learn that there is a difference between the similar modes "packet" and "Packet Winlink," a distinction you never mention. Why have a second video that includes Winlink? That unanswered question is your cue to do a little 'splainin right there. Not a lot of 'splainin , but many people new to packet, Winlink, etc. will be so grateful if you bridge that gap too. Since Winlink/Signalink is a glorified Sound Card and can mean you don't need a TNC in your computer system, it would help your goal I think to explain what a TNC is and compare to internal sound cards that are 50 bucks! (forget the magic of video!") and what makes your TNC different from the run of the mill sound card, especially the built in junk we see these days. That would be a good place for a little primer about what a computer user sees when he/she right-clicks the little speaker icon down there, depending on what's installed for a "sound system." A perfect place for a little drawing perhaps of what is going to happen. There's a path from your keyboard, to computer to TNC (if you have one) or a crappy built in "sound system" that mimics a sound card. And this is the place to decide if you ready to add WInlink/Signalink to the equation, or not. Of course there is a difference between "needing a Winlink" and "wanting" a Winlink. But the point here before you launch into the WInlink video is that you're already set up for old packet mode. No Signalink or Winlink needed. Winlink gives you a lot more modes, its own version of packet, because even if you have Winlink you might want to communicate using "ol" ' packet" - the original - which you can do because you only need Soundmodem and Easy Term - both free downloads (thanks for including the site). In a nutshell, clearly distinguish betweeen packet mode and what you need for it vs Winlink/Signalink and Winlink's proprietary version of packet. Folks around here use both. There's really not much to add other than the above, you do a great job of zipping through a lot of arcane stuff that is meaningless to the newbie (some settings for example) - so say so! e.g., "Kiss" -- don't worry about what it means the more advanced care to even wonder about that - same for several of the settings I'll go past pretty quickly. Just make sure you do enter the required settings, worry why somebody picked the word "Ackmode" some other time. Hope this helps. I am taking the time to write this because by far you come closer to anyone on the net to explaining digital packet comm via 2 Meters than anyone. At the end, you can even mention HF....just in passing of course, its beyond the scope of what you're trying to do. All in all, nice job. Dave
Great YT Video... I'm having an issue with FT-991A When you selected the COM Port for PTT.?? Is that the Enhanced or Standard as shown in Device Manager..?? Thanks
@@AG6AG Many Thanks... Will try later My 991A is working perfectly with FT8 Seems I would have to change a few things to switch between FT8 & FM Packet
@@AG6AG Hi, Many Thanks, I will check this out later. I have my 991A configured and working great with FT8 It looks like I would need to change settings each time to swap between FT8 FM Packet. ???
Hi Dave, Both your FT8 and Soundmodem should work together without any setting changes between them. The setting I'm talking about has to do with the Standard COM port not the Enhanced COM port. The Standard COM port only sends PTT commands. For Soundmodem you want it to set the RTS line high to key the radio. WSJT-x uses full CAT controls so it should be configured to use the Enhanced COM port. Here are all the settings I use on my FT-991a: FT-991/a Menu Settings for Digital: 062 DATA MODE = OTHERS 064 OTHER DISP = 1500Hz 065 OTHER SHIFT = 1500Hz 066 DATA LCUT FREQ = OFF 068 DATA HCUT FREQ = OFF 071 DATA PTT SELECT = RTS 072 DATA IN SELECT = USB 077 DATA OUT LEVEL = 15 (You may need to play with this) 076 FM PKT PTT SELECT = RTS 077 FM PKT PORT SELECT = USB 078 FM PKT TX GAIN = 25 107 SSB OUT LEVEL = 12 (You may need to play with this) 108 SSB PTT SELECT = RTS 109 SSB PORT SELECT = USB Hope that clears things up a bit. Stu AG6AG
Did you know that Soundmodem can be used as a Digipeater ?. To enable it, you have to edit the 'soundmodem.ini' file. In the file you will see a line, 'MyDigiCall=', just add your digi callsign after the = sign, and save the file. Make sure that Soundmodem is shut down before editing the ini file, if its running, the ini file will be overwritten by the default file when you close it down and your edit will be lost.

I can test the radio connection with Soundmodems Calibration but I cannot key the 991A with sound modem with another program like easy term or Winlink. Do you know any way to test why this does not work.
Hi Thuff, If you have hooked your 991(a) up via the USB port and loaded the drivers from the Yaesu site for the com ports, you should have standard and enhanced serial ports for the 991 under device manager. In the 991(a) verify the following: Menu #76 "Pkt PTT Select = RTS Menu #77 Pkt Port Select = USB Menu #79 Pkt Mode = 1200 bps Now, check which COM port is your standard port, then under SoundModem settings set PTT Port to that port.

I discuss them briefly at about 8:45 when showing the configuration for Easy Term, but never really tie the two together... Sound modem listens on network ports for connections from other software. The two connection methods are AGWPE and KISS. Easy Term wants to connect via AGWPE. Here is a little more info that might help. In Sound Modem, under Settings, select Devices. You will see the "Server setup" area about half way down. You should have port 8000 set for AGWPE and port 8100 set for KISS, These are the defaults. Remember though, you can set them to any available port on your system if the defaults I've just listed are being used by another program on your PC. Then, in Easy Term, under Setting, select Station Setup. At the bottom you should see the "TNC Setup" section. The Host should be 127.0.0.1 for your local PC. The port should match the port you set as the AGWPE port, which is port 8000 by default. Hope that helps! Stu AG6AG
