Hello,

Need help to understand how the SkyRoof shows the D/L and U/L Modes in the GUI.
In the following, you can see the SO-50 Satellite shows as USB mode. But as I know the Voice Repeater is working in FM mode.

From where SkyRoof reads this information?

Due to this, when I start my IC-9700, with RX and TX CAT, the SkyRoof switches the Radio to USB mode. The memory channel saved in my 9700 is SO-50 with FM mode.

Regards,
Venkat

Dear  Venkat ,

Your question is answered in SkyRoof User's Guide, in the Frequency Control section under Mode. SkyRoof does not know what mode you want to use with each Sat transmitter, you have to tell it that, and the program will remember your answer.

Ok thanks Alex for that information. I hadn't read the full user Guide.
