[1000mp] KEYBOARD CW

[Jim Dawson]

Like Joe said, you can't key the radio through the radio's serial port.
You must key the key jack either with a keyer or interface from the
computer. The radio's serial port is just for CAT control.

Guys

I have myFT1000 Mark V Field serial cable running from CAT to my PC serial port, 
com 2.    I am currently using DX4WIN contest and logging program, which 
supports CW and CW Keyboard use.   Obviously I'm missing something as I can get 
nothing to happen.

Is there something I'm missing to do width the Mark V, or something with my 
pc???

Actually, I watched one of the Icom guys at Dayton using the laptop with the 
Million Dollar rig of theirs, and it looked so easy!!!      Apparently its not, 
or I'm too stupid???    I'm betting on the last.

Thanks

Jon k8ly
