Full support for the new W 4 RT Electronics One-Touch Tune (OTT-847) interface This interface is used to control LDG automatic antenna tuners. Several features are available with the software: OTT (One-Touch Tune) where you can start a tuning process by pushing a button. NTT (No-Touch. Tune) will start a tuning process automatically after QSY. (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de Compatible to: AT-11 MP, RT-11, A-1000, as will be 2 future models
Full control for the YAESU FT-847 transceiver from your computer … Full transceiver control via buttons in the software. All the available indicators, frequencies and modes are automatically polled from the transceiver. So a normal tuning on the transceiver itself will be detected and shown in the software display.

Comfortable memory management … all HAM bands are visible and useable at the same time ! Open memory database with an unlimited amount of possible memories in an overall view. The memory banks of all amateur radio bands are visible and useable with ease at the same time. Several additional memory banks are available. Also memory banks with the possibility to save offset, DCS, DEC, ENC, azimuthal and elevational data are available. The AZ / EL – data can be used to drive the ARS rotator interface from EA 4 TX or can be used to drive any Easycomm compatible hardware like rotators and much more.

Transverter on-screen translation Programable calculated target frequencies on two additional software VFO display’s, for the use with up to four optional transverter-devices. The software is capable to administrate up to four transverter-devices (for each antenna-jack). (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de 5
Automatic Doppler correction via Sat. Scape® and NOVA® DDE interface (Dynamic Data Exchange) to satellite tracking programs (NOVA, Sat. Scape etc. ) for automatic Doppler-correction. The Doppler corrected frequency can be send to the transceiver, so no manual tuning is needed anymore, when working satellites. RX- and TX-VFO will be continuously updated with the Doppler-corrected frequency. Of course, possible calculated transverter frequencies will be taken as source for the final calculation of the doppler shift. So this part is 100% compatible with AO-40 or other super-high frequency satellites. (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de 6
Clone data memory management for the internal memories of the FT-847… Clone data memory management for the internal memories of the FT-847 transceiver. FT 847 -Super. Control is able to read, edit, archive and send back clone files to the transceiver. It is easy to set up different clone files and copy them to your harddrive. If you want to use a special memory setup in the transceiver, simply send the wanted clone file to the transceiver. Clone files can be edited with the help of existing FT 847 -Super. Control memory banks of course. (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de 7
Wave recording of QSO‘s or other important signals for the FT-847… Wave recording of QSO’s or other important signals. FT 847 -Super. Control® has the possibility to record signals either when the squelch has been opened or on other selectable events. For this feature, a standard audio device in the computer is necessary. The recorded audio data will be saved automatically to a special drawer and can be replayed at any time (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de 8
Scanning of single memory banks for the FT 847 -transceiver You can single memory banks, there is no need to scan all memory banks at the same time. Your FT-847 transceiver has only 100 internal memories, which must be scanned all at once. If you have saved frequencies out of different bands and if you want to scan these memories, you can hear a rapid clicking of relay type devices inside the transceiver. It is not proved, but we’re sure that continuous long time period scanning will shorten the life of these relay type devices. But with this feature you are aware of such incidents.

Full featured VFO - scanner Full featured vfo scanner with software based quick memory bank (QMB). It is possible to set up different scan ranges which can be scanned in a row. Every found signal will be taken to the quick memory bank for a later recall. You can specify the s-meter level at which the frequencies should be saved to the quick (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP memory bank. www. supercontrol. de 10
Full featured visual bandscope… Visual band scope with different scan-steps and various possibilities. Take over a desired frequency to the actual VFO with just one mouseclick. (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP www. supercontrol. de 11
Additional features: Voice announcements of frequency, mode and other important functions. Voice keyer for contests. You can predefine up to ten different announcements. Automatic 10 minute station id (up to four id’s or callsigns recordable). Internet based telnet dx-cluster logger shows the latest dx-spots in the VFO display of the software. Full support for the OTT-847 interface to drive LDG automatic antenna tuners Full support for Easycomm and the ARS rotator interface to drive compatible hardware like rotor interfaces, etc. And much more ! Support of up to eight different serial ports. These higher ports are to be used when converting (C) by Peter Pfisterer, DH 1 NGP a USB to a serial port. www. supercontrol. de Skedbook & Logbook function. Full duplex (two-way) crossband repeater with semi repeater-offset. The FT-847 itself has only one-way crossbanding. Remote control the FT-847 transceiver via TCP/IP networks possible (also via the internet). ARS – It’s possible to set up different offsets in the same band. Testing environment for undocumented CAT commands. Tone & DTMF encoder / decoder (remote control under development) 12
