I have hit the wall on my computer literacy. For years I have used the Smart Switch 8 on my Icom and now with the 6700 I cant figure how to configure the DDUtil so it sees the band date Using Windows 7 64 bit...any help??

tnx, Bruce AH0U

    I am not familiar with SmartSwitch,  but is DDUtil showing the frequency and temperature of the radio?   In otherwords is DDUtil connected to your radio.. ?   You need to be running the latest version of DDUtil too with 1.6.21 version of SmartSDR ..

    Yes it shows the temp. and the voltage. Never have seen the freq. any place.... I just cant find the bnd data or how to connect it to the Smart Switch... There must be others out there w ho automatically switch their antennas when they change bands on the 6700...

    Tnx, bc

    Bruce, I'm not familiar with that hardware, but it if you can send me a manual or a link to it I may be able to advise you if it can be connected to the radio or to DDUtil.

    Whew!   I thought is was just me trying to figure out how to talk to DX Solution's Smart Antenna Switches (SAS-6's).   I gave up and bought the 4O3A Antenna Genius for antenna switching.   I have the SAS-6 manual digitized.  I'm on the road and will be home sometime Wednesday.    Anyone can email me off line and I will send a copy.    If anyone needs an SAS-6, I have about a dozen for sale.   They are programmable to work with any brand of radio.....except Flex, I guess.   They were sure slick with my legacy radios!!!
