[Dxbase] Icom IC-7800 interface issue

[Lou Laderman]

> I am having problems interfacing an Icom IC-7800 with DXBase. I got the
> transceiver to connect by setting the CI-V baud rate at 19200 on the 7800,
> and the same baud rate in DXBase. I am using the RS-232 on the 7800, and
> com1 on my computer (a Dell with a card I/O input).. Firmware version on
> the 7800 is 2.0.  However, the next day I could not connect. I had the
> same settings. I have used a number of different baud rates, and can no
> longer connect. My other radio (a Yaesu Mark V) connects through DXBase
> just fine. There's no indication that the 7800 is not communicating (I do
> not get an error message that the radio cannot be found), but noting is
> coming through from the radio into DXBase.  I have changed cables, tried
> additional com ports (using an Edgeport/8 USB interface for other com
> ports), and have run out of ideas. Does anyone have any suggestions?
