[Kenwood] Interrupted TX with IF-232/TS-950

[Darrell Drake]

Hello Group...
    I'm using a TS-950SDX and the IF-232C interface.
I've noticed, and have been advised by people with whom I'm in QSO, that
my transmitted signal has a "blip" on it.
(I can also hear it by turning on the MONI  switch.)
This "blip" shows on my power meter as a drop in output power, and it
only occurs when I'm running a logging program which polls the radio for
frequency and mode.  I'm guessing that the "blip" is caused by the
polling operation. This occurs no matter which logging program I'm
using, so I'm sure it's either within the radio itself, or the IF-232C.
Question: Is this a normal occurrence, or is there a problem with the
radio and/or the interface?
Any comments/suggestions would be welcomed.
Darrell,
