[Dx4win] MicroHam USB II

I spoke with Paul tonight; since I use USB II   and an MP ok with DX4WIN.
I am not aware of any different settings with MP's or MK V's.

You are right; it is 4800 Baud and 8N2 for an MP; and we configured the COM
ports exactly as mine.

The Baud rate is set in DX4WIN, under radio option (preferences); and it is
only the COM port that is aligned in the USB window.

I remembered from my CT days that there was a switch on the back of MP's,
that reset the CAT settings out of the MP; since sometimes they were
reported as going screwy.

I couldn't sort it unfortunately; and is a mystery unless there is a
hardware fault, I suspect (cables, ports, USBII, rig o/p)  or something is
different with the MK V

Hope you got your MD4K card back OK; look out for us this weekend, this time
from P3F !

Hi Paul,

I'd start with the radio first.  You should be able to create a virtual COM
port using the microHam software, then use that COM port in DX4WIN as your
radio COM port.  If I recall, Yaesu is 4800 baud, 2 stop bits.  I don't know
if
the stop bits are configured in the microHam router program, or in DX4WIn.

Then try MMTTY stand-alone, and try to get FSK and PTT working through those
virtual COM ports.

The people on the microHam reflector (esp. Joe W4TV) are pretty helpful in
answering questions:

Good luck.
