[PCR-1000] PCR 1000 / Radiocom

Wed, 12 Mar 2003 21:47:53 -0500

I also have been disappointed with the support from Bonita over with
Radiocom.  I originally purchased the software 4.0, then 5.0 ($$$) =
before
they started bundling it with the PCR1000.  I ran it on a old Toshiba =
laptop
for a while, then later upgraded my laptop.  I no longer have a serial =
port
on my new laptop - but installed a USB to Serial converter.  This item =
works
on virtually every other ex-serial item I have except RadioCom.  I have
written several e-mails to Bonito about the possibility of a patch or =
some
correction so that I can use 5.0 on a machine with a USB to Serial =
cable,
but have never received a reply. =20

Has anyone else had any success using a USB to serial converter?  Got =
any
tricks up your sleeve on how you got it to work? =20

When I got my PCR 1000 with the Bonita software, the dinge thing was
missing. Bonita wanted 100.00 for it and Icom said they could not help =
even
though it shipped from them with Bonita SW.

I found a really good solution to my problem.  I took the CD Rom out to =
the
back yard and used it as a Frisbee for my little Poodle to chase. She =
had
more fun with it than I would have if I had used it for the radio.

I DL the Icom SW from the Icom site and I love it, does just exactly =
what I
needed in a PC radio.
