DTR is checked as "High" for the Kenwood, but this is not needed in N1MM Logger, so I figure it is a meaningless accident... >4.

Not all rigs are capable of this via RS 232.) None. Behavior of both rigs is flawless. It's probably worth noting that the PIEXX/TS-930 does not report its mode, because it has an old-fashioned mechanical mode switch. The PIEXX board instead reports back the last mode that it was SENT by the computer, or USB if it has just been turned on, so you have to get the radio and the computer in sync by grabbing an appropriate spot if it doesn't come up in the mode you want (even though the radio really is, for example, on CW). 73, Pete N4ZR Happy Holidays Check out the World HF Contest Station Database at www.pvrc.org/wcsd/wcsdsearch.htm
