[Kenwood] TMV-7A software prob

[WB0QXW@aol.com]

Hello....

I am having a problem getting my TMV-7A programming software to read the 
radio. I am using a laptop with Windows XP Home, and a USB serial port adaptor box 
by Belkin. It works with all other software and applications. The port is set 
to com 2 both in the box and the software. I used the software correctly on 
my desktop years ago but I can not easily remove the radio from my trunk. I 
just use the laptop on battery and connect to the TMV-7A while setting it in the 
trunk. I get a communications error when I select "read" from the menu. The 
port settings are correct per the kenwood email. (9600, 8, n, 1, flow control is 
xon/xoff. Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks and 73's...
