Well, my turn for a slice of humble pie. (My fellow SOCers will be proud 
of me;-)

Did some voltage checks and found 0v on U1-12 and 5v on J2-1... you 
guessed it, I had
done the duplex mod wrong... I found out that my ability to count IC 
pins at 0200hrs
leaves something to be desired.

Now the rig works fine with my home computer with both TRlog and LogEQF.

I also tried the rig with my poqet and an 8088 version of TRlog 6.10. 
While the
rig takes commands from the poqet (ie band/mode changes) it still does 
not seem
to be receiving frequency info from the rig... I don't know if this is a 
polling issue with
that version of TRlog, or a problem with low levels on the poqet serial 
port.
Is anyone else using this combination? As it is, the combination is 
usable, I just
have to make sure that I synchronize the rig and computer by changing bands
with the poqet, and not on the rig.

Thanks again to all those who responded to my initial query.
