FT-991a Menu Configuration

(per N7TMS 2021-05-13)


These are the settings used everyday by N7TMS. There are other sources on the web that claim you need to change menu settings when you switch from SSB to data modes. If you use the settings as outlined here, you will not need to change them when you switch modes. See FLdigi and/or Winlink.

Rodrigo Freire has done a great job documenting what some of the menu options do. See his github page here: https://github.com/rfrht/FT991A-PAT/wiki/appendix-ft-991-a-menu-settings.

I have found 4800bps to be more stable in my environment, but I have also seen 38400 bps working just fine in other ham’s systems.
