[Dx4win] rig control

[W9RPM]

Guy, thanks much for working on this. The 3000 works with your 5000 rig 
file except when I click on a Split spot it will put the rig in split, 
but doesn't do the correct Mode in VFO B, and then Times out. With the 
950 Rig file the rig will go into Split, but VFO B, not correct mode. 
But the radio doesn't time out. Thanks again, John W9RPM
