[Elecraft] rig control

[Donald Nesbitt]

Hi Randy - no solution here but just a couple of thoughts of things to
check/try - I'm using both HRD and N1MM quite nicely with my K2.

Did the KIO2 ever work?

Is the "special" KIO2 cable properly constructed?

Check that the port is actually on in the K2 menu

Check that the KIO2 is actually working by using the terminal program as
described in the manual - possible that the little bitty choke in the KIO2
is blown??

Check the settings of your COM port using the windows (I'm assuming you are
using windows here) device manager to see that you actually are using an
active and available COM port (for instance, on one computer I use a USB to
serial converter and windows places that resulting port at COM4)

I've found that setting N1MM to 1 stop bit works as well or better than the
2 stop bits that seem to be the default.

Unless there is something very exotic about your setup, there is a solution
to this vexing problem!

I have been able to connect my IC-756PROII to the Ham Radio Deluxe rig
control software but when I hook up the K2 cable it will not connect.

I use the N3FJP logging and contest programs and none of them are able to
poll the rig either. Nor could I connect with N1MM.

Ideas?
