John,

Dx4win is supporting the FTDX9000 but it isn't working
Like in All OTHER LOGBOOK or CONTESTPRG correct.
OMS, PY5EG explained clearly what the problem is.

"Changing bands manually on the FT9K"
DX4WIN follows to the correct band.
This works OK.

"Sending a grabbed spot to the radio."
The radio goes to the correct frequency on the FT9K 
But it goes to VFO B for XMIT and not to VFO A,
independently if the station is operating split or not.
Cmd for VFO A = FA...... and cmd for VFO B = FB...... etc
This is done by all tested programs but the problem stays
For all the same. 
  
Probably this is a FIRMWARE bug in the FT9K but nobody answers this !!! 

Maybe this is also the reason why you can't buy the FT2000 
( = same new CAT commands like FTDX9000D).
There are some sold in USA but nobody knows (mailed several big dealers all
over the world) when they will be available again.
