Today, I added three drivers in a row for the Yaesu FT-817, FT-857, and FT-897.
Due to the limitations of the legacy 5-byte CAT system, the supported command set is relatively small. Consequently, most unused knobs and regulators are hidden to keep the interface clean. Currently, the system supports reading the frequency, mode, S-meter, and PO-meter levels, as well as TX/RX states. This ensures the window remains uncluttered by unnecessary gauges and buttons.
All drivers were successfully tested on my mcHF (M0NKA) transceiver, which natively supports the legacy Yaesu CAT protocol.
