It would require at least a MFJ-664 device. Using a MH-59 mic one has control of most important features, though one would need some means to confirm if a change was accepted. According to a recent thread there are no provisions for voice readout. Perhaps someone may build an outboard device. Using a PC or PDA would provide 2-way data flow and I suppose 440 could be used as the control freq. (440 is preferred because it penetrate metal structures better than 2M or 222.) I have also received some interesting suggestions and conflicting opinions as to the FCC regs. Anyone out there seen an entirely wireless remote base using 440 and a Yaesu FT-897 or FT-857? -- Thanks! & 73, doc, KD4E ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Projects: http://ham-macguyver.bibleseven.com Personal: http://bibleseven.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *********************************************************** Warning: This email may contain confidential or privileged information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
