[Dx4win] 8.03 Problem

I have an Icom 756ProII and have the same issue. Works fine under 8.02, 
locks into xmit as described in 8.03. I've got it connected via a 
Rigblaster Plus for keying and verified that the configuration settings 
were identical when I moved from 8.02 to 8.03. I don't believe that the 
information below described for the K3 would apply to my configuration.
