I've been experimenting with CAT control of the SDR1K using Delphi and something is not quite right. I can send say FA; to the SDR to get the freq of VFO 1, and reading the COM port will at times return the proper value as expected, however at times it returns nothing, then when it finally does, it returns several iterations of the freq for each time I sent FA; before.
Sometimes, it seems like the COM port times out or something to that effect. I can go into PowerSDR and toggle the CAT off and then back on and it will work for a bit. I know this sounds sort of vague... Can someone tell me what I'm missing that may have had the same issue at first? I've done Async stuff before with no problems, so this one has me lost. I'm trying to marry up my new LP-100 Digi Vector wattmeter with the SDR. I can command and poll the LP-100 with no problem via a COM port, however I've never attempted any CAT control of rigs with my own software. Thanks for any suggestions.
