[1000mp] CAT on FT1000MP

I control my FT-1000MP Mark V with the Commander component of the DXLab
Suite and observe no muting of the audio when changing the transceiver's
frequency via Commander. There are many owners of 1000MPs as well as Mark Vs
who use Commander, but none has ever reported an audio muting problem.

Has anyone used their CAT interface for tuning their radio?  Several friends
and myself have tried using Ham Radio Deluxe and it works fine except when
tuning the VFO from the computer screen there is a muting of the audio for
each frequency step.  Both the old MP and the Mark V Field do the same
thing.  The new 2000 does not.  We have tried different computers and
setting but nothing seems to change it.  Some claim it is the slow RS232
port on the 1000, 4800 baud but I am not so sure why that would cause the
audio to drop out. The S meter does not show any loss of signal so it is
just an audio muting problem.  73 Mike K4PI
