[Rick Dougherty NQ4I]

Hi Bob...I am currently on a trip, but will be home on Wed...and I will be
glad to work with you some to get your win-test and the FT1000D talking...I
have had good results with my FT1000D's...have 8 of them with good
results..de Rick

> I know it is not the computer.....I have tried 4 of them with the same

> There has got to be something I am missing but what is it?

> Let me note that I am just using the latest demo version at this point just

> To recap:
> Radio is an FT-1000D.
> I can click on spots and the radio goes to that frequency.
> I can type in a frequency and the radio goes to that frequency.
> Everything works but the computer just does not seem to be accepting data
> that the radio is sending.  It is acting as if it is a one-way line of
> communication.
> Computer talks to the radio and the radio does what it is told but the
> computer will not do what the radio is telling it to do.
