[Ham-Mac] Strange problem? PSK31` PTT

Wed, 24 Mar 2004 18:01:01 -0600

Dick,

It is time for you to consult with Jason at Tigertronics and/or TenTec. It
sounds like a you have a error in the 5-Pin Din.  Did you wire the connector
or purchase it from Tigertronics

A better place to post your problem may with the Orion users. I assume they
have a reflector.  Your Mac and the SL-1+  seem to be doing their job.  A
red LED on the SignaLink means it had detected a signal from the computer
and is sending the data to the radio.

Good luck!
