This powerful metric provides valuable insight into the overall performance of the antenna system, enabling operators to quickly identify and address SWR issues. An external SWR meter or antenna analyzer, on the other hand, measures the SWR from the point it is connected, which doesn't take into account any losses or mismatches inside the transceiver itself. This is not entirely representative of the system's overall performance. Easy to connect plugs into the transceiver Tuner/Linear jack. On your transceiver set CAT-3 to 19200bps plug in CatTouch and it starts - no operating system to load, no program/s to start & no possibility of virus. Just like your transceiver, power it up & it works. There is no pass through port on CatTouch so if your Tuner/Linear jack is in use, you cannot add CatTouch So easy to change settings.

Slideshow is fixed at 10 seconds interval & images size is 480x320. Auto scaling is not supported NOTES: - TX Meters are erratic in non-carrier voice modes (SSB) due to slow Yaesu CAT system - Make sure your Yaesu transceiver has the latest Yaesu firmware installed - FT-710 may still face CAT issues despite latest Yaesu firmware update - For fewer WSJT-X pop-up errors, set CAT polling over 10 seconds. - John (W1XQ) advises MSHV is a reliable WSJT-X alternative with no issues.
