Had a bit of success this afternoon. Got my homebrew logging program (written in Visual Basic) to control my Drake R8B using the codes supplied with the radio's manual. Am able to turn the R8B off/on, make it change frequencies, change modes, turn AM/Sync off/on, etc. Haven't tried polling the radio yet to see if I can grab freq, mode, etc.
I have a plan to create some sort of module that will work in conjunction with Total Recorder to be able to record at different preset times on different frequencies. Total Recorder will accept command line parameters and that will most likely be my approach.
Might not get to work on this for a few days.
