Jim (et al),
Yes, Jim and I have exchanged email about the CI-V protocol and his efforts
to tame the PW1. As I understand it, K9JM's (www.k9jm.com) device is a piece
of hardware, running custom software developed by Jim, that breaks the CI-V
bus into segments and isolates traffic to the PC, the radio, and the PW1
amplifier as necessary. A neighboring ham has recently ordered one of Jim's
CI-V Routers and has promised to let me run my CI-V tests against. If I
encounter any issues (which I don't anticipate) I'll work with Jim to their
resolution.
Otherwise, I plan to refresh my "Riding the CI-V Bus" articles with the
results... and of course will post a message to the reflector.

I'm curious, is "Jim's CIV router" a piece of software that sits
between the hardware and DX4WIN? Is it something that anyone can
install? I wasn't clear from either description.
Maybe someone can write up an application note on how to use all four
together:
- DX4WIN
- ICOM radio
- PW1 amplifier
- router software
I'll happily re-format it and post it on my DX4WIN support site.
Note that K8UT wrote up a long note about the ICOM protocol, see:
http://www.k8ut.com/tiki-listpages.php
I don't know if Jim saw this beforehand.
