[WT-support] TRX Control for FT990

[Franta Bendl]

Hi Olivier,

tnx for you answer.

I wrote today afternoon a small programm (java) to control the TRX with 
restricted set of commands (set vfo/qrg/mode/filter) and to show the set 
data. There is no problem at all. Unfortunately I don't know the logic, how 
WT makes it. Can you send me this peace of your code to check and to compare 
it on my site. I can send you my programm if you are interested.
