Just received following message from Paul (dx4win father): Radi, Found an email that may be of help to you:
The problem was within the radio file 735.rig shipped with version 8.05 in the [RC-Read Mode] command. In version 7.01, the LEN parameter is 7 while in version 8.05, the LEN parameter was 8. Changing LEN back to 7 solved the problem. The Icom 735 now works fine with version 8.05.

With the good dx4win ver 8.01 rig file, to obtain log window's band/mode to reflect changes on the rig selections, a lot of combinations of polling times/retries were tried. In some of them, like with default polling time of 5000ms, it was required to open the radio frequency setup window and click on "read" to make logging window reflect the changes. The combination that works automatically and FB, without having to open the frequency setup window, , is 350ms and 3 retries (set in Radio Preferences). Some other close to these numbers may work also, but this one works all the time in my case) > > >3. Speed in ic735.rig file and preferences was changed from 1200 bps to 9600 bps and JU22 in radio was also set to 9600 bps (left position contacts). Also, "ci-v transceive" jumper in radio ( the last contacts on the right) was left ON. > > >RMX: transceiver band/frequency will not be reflected correctly in logging >window if radio is tuned to a frequency out of HAM band limits, which is OK. > > > >Now, I am haaaaappy again...... :) > > >73, >Radi F6GNZ > > ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
