Sync Your Xiegu G90 To The HDSDR

Syncing your G90 the the HDSDR

Things you will need :

Your Xiegu G90 will come with a cat cable, but if you somehow don’t have one, you will have to search for one on eBay. If you have one, hook it up from the cat control on the head of the Xiegu G90 to the USB port of your PC.

Make sure you have a 3.5mm audio cable with left and right stereo on both ends. You can buy one on Amazon here.

You will need to hook one end of the cable to the IQ on the back of the G90 and the other end to the input of the Line In on the PC. You will need to have a stereo input on your PC for it to work. Don’t try using your microphone input on your computer.

If you do not have a line input on your PC (Do Not Use The Mic INput), you will need a Stereo Audio Adapter or External Sound Card with a line in. You can buy it on Amazon here.

To get the Xiegu g90 set up on the HDSDR, click on Options, Cat to Radio (Omnirig), then click Setup.

In Omnirig Rig Type, select IC 756 Pro, and then the Com Port it is using. Make sure to select the same bandwidth rate that the port is using, or it will not work.

Then click OK.

Click on options in your HDSDR again, hover over CAT to HDSDR, hover over the port, and click the same port Omnirig is using.
