[DXBase] ICOM 758ProII

Tue, 23 Mar 2004 07:32:17 -0600

No,  there are no differences of which I am aware.  I simply wanted to 
advise the settings which I successfully use for the benefit of anyone 
having difficulties.  The reason I have set up my Pro II to be 
addressable as a Pro was that at the time the Pro II was not a selection 
option in WriteLog.  This may have changed, but I have not changed that 
which is working.
