  • This video shows you how to get SDRUno working with Win4IcomSuite if you want to use SDRUno to provide the panadapter/waterfall display while you are using Win4IcomSuite.
    You may have to turn the volume up to hear the narration. I don't think the audio is very loud even though i turned up the microphone volume as much as could.

    I know you posted this video 2 years ago but I wanted you to know that it helped me get SDRUno working with my Win4Yaesu program. Thank you!

      I'm glad to hear it is working for you. Did you have to use OmniRig? For some reason, the Win4Icomsuite software required Omnirig in order to work with the SDRUno software.

    Setup works for IC 7100 too. Just select the 7300 in Omni rig. If you select a ic7100 it won't work for some reason.. I have my ic7100 RF tapped internally in the radio and feeding the output to an rsp1a . Works great. The Rsp1a is a great reciever and the panadapter with sdruno is the best. My next step is to setup Citrix so I can remotely control my pc

    This was a big help. I"m working on getting my older Omni VI to work with a pan adapter. And what you went over is definitely relevant to what I'm trying to figure out. Thanks

    Hi Michael. Thanks for the video. I have really basic question...do I need to have and SDR RSP device actually connected to my PC in order to use the SDRuno panadapter? If so, I'm completely lost. I can't undertand what part the SDR RSP plays when I'm TX/RX from my IC7300. Any guidance appreciated

      SDRUno is designed to be used with the SDRPLAY RSP series of devices. So yes, you need one of the RSP receivers connected to the computer so that SDRUno can see it.
      Once you have SDRUno working with the RSP device, now you need to feed a signal into the RSP device through the antenna jack on the device. The signal into the RSP device comes from the 7300. This means you need a way to feed a signal from the IC-7300 into the RSP device.
      I use something called the PTRX7300. This is a circuit board that fits inside the IC-7300 and provides an antenna connector so that the antenna jack on the RSP device can be connected to the IC-7300. The PTRX7300 also protects the RSP device from damage while the 7300 is transmitting. One disadvantage of the PTRX7300 is price. It is expensive.
      There are other ways to do this. One way is to use something called the MFJ-1708SDR. This allows you to connect the IC-7300 (or other transceiver) and the RSP device to the same antenna at the same time. There are relays inside the device to switch things so that the RSP device is protected while the IC-7300 is transmitting.
      There are TH-cam videos on both of these devices and I recommend that you watch some of them.
      After everything is connected properly, then you can configure Win4IcomSuite to talk to SDRUno. This allows you to point and click on sigals in the SDRUno panadadapter and the IC-7300 will be tuned to that frequency. And when you tune the IC-7300 using the VFO knob, you can watch as SDRUno also tunes the RSP device to follow the IC-7300.
      So basically what you get is two receivers (the RSP device and the IC-7300) listening to the same frequency using the same antenna. But they are tuned simultaneously through the softwware (SDRUno and Win4IcomSuite Plus OmniRig) communicating with each other.
      I hope that makes things a little more clear.

    I recommend omnirig in most cases. Hamlib drivers frequently have issues with all kinds of software.

    I set up the Win4icom software to use COM 11 and COM 12 for omni-rig 1 and wsjtx. I then setup Win4icom with COM15 and COM16 for N3FJP. So I watched your video and setup WIN4ICOM with COM17 and COM 18 for Omni-rig 2 for SDRUno. The radio, WIN4ICOM and Omni rig seem to communicate, but I cannot change bands in SDRUno. The radio changes, but SDRUno stays at the previous band. Any suggestions?

      I can tell you how I have mine, and I do have some things for you to check.
      Check to make sure you are using the correct version of OmniRig. There are two versions. One lets you set up two radios for OmniRig and the other lets you set up 4 radios. Use the two-radio version.
      In Win4IcomSuite, I have COM21 for SDRUno, COM23 for WSJT-X, and COM26 for N3FJP.
      In OmniRig, I have set up Rig1 for the IC-7300, and I use COM11. COM 11/21 are the virtual serial port pair for SDRUno.
      In the SDRUno MAIN window, click the SETT. button at the top of the screen then click the ORIG tab in the Main Settings window.
      Check that either Rig1 or Rig2 shows the Rig Type as 7300 and RIG status as on-Line.
      In the SDRUno RX CONTROL window, click the SETT. button at the top of the screen then click the ORIG tab.
      Select RIG1 or RIG2, whichever is assigned to the IC-7300. Then make sure these checkboxes are selected: SYNC VRX --> RIG,
      SYNC RIG --> VRX, and SYNC RX MODE. SYNC CENTER FREQ. (LO) should be unchecked.
      Close the RX Settings window. In the RX CONTROL window, either RSYN1 or RSYN2 should be showing at the top of the screen, depending upon which one you selected in the RX Settings Window. Click the RSYN button to activate it.
      After that, as far as I know, SDRUNO and Win4IcomSuite should be communicating with each other.

      @@wanderingwithbob2472 Ok, I have one more idea. I was going to ask if you could change bands from the IC-7300, or only change frequencies within a band using the radio.
      it sounds like you cannot change bands on the radio then have SDRUno follow. If this is the case, check one more thing.
      In the SDRUno MAIN window, make sure that LO LOCK is NOT selected. If LO LOCK is selected, then the behaviour is that you can turn the VFO knob on the radio to change frequencies within a band, but if you try to use the rig to change to another band SDRUno will not follow.
      When you deselect the LO LOCK feature, then SDRUno will follow the rig when you change bands using the rig. Or, It should follow the rig.
      let me know how it goes.

      @@wanderingwithbob2472 I'm glad you got it working. Since the panadapter display is provided by separate hardware and software from the IC-7300. it is necessary to learn to use SDRUno as well as Win4IcomSuite. There's a bit of a steep learning curve with SDRUno, but it might be worth it to read through the manual. Good luck.
