Hello Friends,

I was using Hamlib rigctld and Skyroof with my IC-9700. This combination used to work well. Today switched to skycatd, but not able to get it working.

Request some help to check this. Am I missing something fundamental?

skycatd.exe -m 3081 -r COM8 -s 115200 -vvv -f
skycatd started.
Log level: Verbose

You are using an old version of SkyCAT, get v.1.5.

Thanks Alex. I went to: https://ve3nea.github.io/SkyRoof/users_guide/skycat.html

There is a download link, but that is 1.4.

Ok sorry. I got to 1.5 now:

I was looking at older user guide. I will try with 1.5.
