I bought this - ģ - Free Putty Software - Download PuTTY: latest release (0.74) I threw out my ancient MacBook Pro, so these instructions are for PCs only:ġ - A USB to Serial Port Adaptor.
Not asking for any links to pirated software.Īfter many years of asking questions here and getting help, I finally have something to contribute! The software had some bugs and didn't work out, but I was able to 'hack it out' with a free software solution. Also, I suspect that HF reception will be better with the AOR.
I realize that because SDRs are so cheap now, (I have RTL-SDR + Ham it Up) this may be a silly project, but I'd like to see if I can get this done. If I buy a USB to Serial Port adaptor, will any software work with Mac's GUI, or directly with the Linux based system? If not, could I install WINE and then Windows XP to get something working? I found some posts referring to older versions of Scancat, but the links don't work, and I found a Scancat page that wants $99.95 for a legacy 16 bit version - Scancat-GOLD - 'Legacy' 16 bit Receiver Control SoftwareĪlso, I have an old 32 bit MacBook pro. Is there any free software that I can use. I'm thinking about throwing some money at this and buying an old XP laptop with a serial port to control the radio. The dial is going bad and the numbers on the buttons are starting to wear off. I'm never going to get rid of my AOR 3000a, but it's a pain to use.
