Other Yaesu radios
FTDX10, FT-101MP, FT-991A and other radios are not part of the current production compatibility claim. Some CAT commands may look similar across Yaesu models, and parts of the application may appear to work, but 710 Console is developed and tested for the FT-710 family.
Do not assume a radio is supported because a COM port opens or a few controls respond. Official support requires physical hardware for development and testing.
FT8, logging and CAT Share
CAT Share is included in the current public build. 710 Console remains the sole owner of the physical FT-710 CAT connection while compatible external software communicates through its serialized CAT broker.
- Hamlib NET rigctl:
127.0.0.1:4532, intended for software such as WSJT-X and JTDX - Raw Yaesu CAT TCP:
127.0.0.1:4533for compatible local software - Built in: QRZ/HamQTH lookups, optional QRZ Logbook upload and a read-only DX-cluster feed
External-software behaviour can vary by program and workflow, so interoperability continues to be refined as more workflows are reported.
Remote operation
Easy Remote connects through the hosted relay with a short-lived share code and does not require router or VPN setup. Direct Remote connects to a saved station over a trusted LAN, VPN or Tailscale network that you provide.
Both methods support radio control, scope data, RX/TX audio and station-managed PTT safety.
