Icom IC-705 PAT Winlink Setup | Ham Radio Raspberry Pi

Hello Operators
Todays video is a Ham Radio Raspberry Pi tutorial for the Icom IC-705 and eventually other radios. We will be using a new setup script call the Easy Mode setup for PAT Winlink running on a raspberry pi. This raspberry pi project will be the fastest and easiest version of PAT Winlink available, and perfect for someone just learning ham radio basics with a raspberry pi. Where traditional organisations like ARES have focused on EMCOMM (emergency communications) for disaster relief, regular people are increasing their skills and capabilities, by adopting asynchronous modes like Winlink and JS8Call, for preparedness communications. I beleive this PAT Winlink update, will both both camps.

if you're having connection problems, Here's one of the short answers.
ATM the CIV for the ic-705 needs to mimic the ic-7300 94h, for rig control. This will change in future updates.
it's also important to understand the 705 is quite picky about your USB cables. Make sure you use a quality USB cable. you can test a good connection for your Raspberry Pi by looking at the audio inputs and outputs icon on your top/bottom menu. You'll see a USB Codec or Input once you 705 is plugged in. if not try a new cable.
