I recently bought an used Yaesu FT-736R VHF/UHF transceiver. The claim is the it comes with CAT interfacing. Is this true CAT interfacing, like what I have with the CI-V interface on my IC-910H?YES (sort of) and NO. The Yaesu FT-736R is a early to mid-1980s design, the Icom IC-910H is a late 1990s design. The Yaesu FT-847 is closer to the Icom IC-910 in design era (time frames). Yaesu provided a first-generation (limited) CAT interface for the FT-736R, which means: 1. It is NOT full featured as found on later radios, such as the FT-847 radio which replaced it.

* Yaesu sells these items separately so that FT 450 and FT 450AT Owners can equip their radios with these desirable features. The FT 450D CAT System allows uploading of factory provided firmware updates as well as computer control of the radio.

Some functions for CAT software, such as Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD), do not work with FT-736R. Due to limited functionality, some software authors/writers do NOT support the FT-736R. There is a DIY solution, that has been developed (PIC processor) to ADD functionality, through emulation (FT-847). GO TO YouTube and view the solution developed 2 years ago for FT-736R to work with Ham Radio Deluxe.

We've got a FT-736 at KE4ZXW, Virginia AIr and Space Center, that we have been using for satcom. We want to use it with Ham Radio Deluxe on a Windows 10 computer with a USB port.

Since the 736 only has a serial TTL port on it, I bought a Ham Spot that is suppose to emulate an FT-847 and does the conversion in the Ham Spot module. The instructions say the computer should recognize the HS736USB driver as a CDC RS232 Emulation Demo in the Device Manager's Com Port section. The computer never sees the this driver's information.

I've tried to contact the makers of the Ham Spot with no replies! Hoping once I get the driver working, HRD will talk to the radio. The concept for this Yaesu FT-736R interface was developed by Dave Dowler, KA6BFB in 2010. He developed a proof of concept in software using VB and Windows. This is a slight modification of the GPL v3 licensed interface designed by Chuck Jones, N6BIL.
