[Dx4win] DX4WIN and IC-PW1

Wed, 12 Jun 2002 08:39:14 -0400

David,

I am running DX4WIN with an Icom IC-746 with a PW-1 and the "$10 Radio Shack
special" CI-V interface. Took a little tweaking to get working properly, and
even now when I turn the equipment on in the wrong order (Computer, rig,
software, amp: since the interface gets its power from the serial port, the
amp may start listening before the interface is powered up and the amp goes
deaf) the PW-1 stops listening to the band-switching commands from the rig.
The amp deafness is easily solved by merely pressing the <down> button on
the amp to cycle the band selection back to "auto", then the amp starts
listening again.

I have some other details that I have forwarded to you in another message.
