I don't want to confuse anybody, so I'll say up front that I have an FT-747GX 
and two FT-847 rigs. The 747 is a whole other issue, in a message I just sent.

I have an early production FT-847 that has unidirectional CAT, and a later 
production model that has bidirectional CAT.  I know we had started a 
discussion on this issue an I think it got mixed up with the FT-840, then died 
out.  At present, the early FT-847s cannot use wsjt-x because the software 
doesn't understand that early models had unidirectional CAT.  The software sets 
the frequency and mode, but the rig cannot acknowledge that change. It sets the 
parameters, but never reports back to the software that it's done.  Basically, 
I'm asking if that being worked on in any way.  I haven't heard anything on it 
in a while.  Do we need a guinea pig?  I'm willing to test software (Linux 
only, as that's all I have) on either FT-847 to make sure it all works.
