I have two Ten Tec transceivers, an Omni VI Plus and a Argonaut V (Model 516).  I am using DX4WIN version 7.07.02 on two computers, one a desktop running Vista Home Premium the other a laptop also running Vista Home Premium.  I am using a Keyspan USB Serial Adapter, set for COM Port 4, with both computers to communicate with the transceivers, since neither computer has a serial port.  

In the DX4WIN Preferences screen, under the "Radio" button, I have selected "Ten Tec" which shows in "Notes for radio" "Paragon II & Omni VI 2.22+" compatibility.  I selected a Baud Rate of 1200, which I also set in the Omni VI Plus.  Using this configuration, DX4WIN works correctly for the Omni VI Plus using both computers, however I cannot communicate with the Argonaut V with either computer.

Is there another radio under the DX4WIN Preferences screen that will me allow me to communicate with the Argonaut V or is there something I am missing in the setup?  Ironically, I am feeding the output from the Argonaut V AUX 1 jack into the sound card of my laptop and decoding PSK31 signals from the Argonaut V using DX4WIN.
