[Dx4win] Rig file for the Yaesu FT 950

[Victor West]

Guy,

This change made no difference.

Jim,
Again, for everybodys' information, I am using FT-9000 V31. Under 
preferences, baud rate is 4800, poll rate 5000, DTR and CTS both checked. 
The FT-950 is working except for the panorama function.  Spots go to the 
radio properly when the spot is clicked on in the spot window (including 
split freq spots), and the progran reads the freq properly from the radio 
and puts it into the logbook.

Sending spots also seems OK.

The problem with the panorama function is the "S meter is "pegged at max" as 
the freq is scanned.  When a signal is received. the display s meter reading 
"dips"according to the strength of the signal.

de Vic, N5YY

I think Guy ON4AOI has been doing some work on the Yaesu radio files.  He
might
be able to give you a better answer.
