NOTE!!! The instructions which follow are intended to be used when FSK is desired.
Frankly unless you are a purest, AFSK works just as well and if you have already
followed the PSK setup instructions. You are good to go, change the mode in DM780
to AFSK and go.
If someone at Yaesu is reading this, please have HAM's proofread your manuals.

  • Page 2 Hopefully this blog post on setting up the FTDX3000 for sound card digital modes will prevent a few from doing the hard way, and for those who have already gone the external interface route to change.

  • Page 3: Configure The Radio

    Configure the Radio Before we begin to setup DM780 to interface with the radio, we first need to setup the radio side of the connection. When using the 3000 for PSK and other sound card based digital modes. The data mode lets the radio use a different set of interfaces and configuration settings for example from SSB use.
  • Page 4 Change item #75 to USB, which tells the radio to source TX audio from the USB audio interface. The next two items #76 and #77 is the gain settings internal to the radio between the internal sound card and the audio input of the transmitter and the audio output of the receiver.
  • Page 5 Change #037 to use the USB serial port and not the back panel port. Also ensure that CAT RTS #040 is enabled as this will permit hardware flow control with the PC. Menu settings applicable to the serial port When you setup HRD to connect to the radio ensure that the “Enhanced port” is being used and that the speed is the same as what was set in radio option #038.

  • Page 8 FTDX3000 sound card shows up as Speakers “7-USB Audio CODEC” and Microphone “7-USB Audio CODEC”. In your system the number may be different but the rest of the text will be the same. Right click on each device, select properties and levels. Start out will a low level around 10 for you initial trials.

  • Page 9: Troubleshooting

    If you have trouble getting the PC to talk to the CAT port on the Radio, I would suggest downloading from the Yaesu website the PCC-3000 package. It presents a very simple interface to the radio and is simple to setup and less may be more by using this simple app to verify radio connectivity.
