Hello all,. I have a Yaesu FT-847 that I'm trying to get to work with DXbase. What I've tried already:
1. I know the FT-847 takes a null-modem serial cable instead of a regular straight-through cable. I have a null modem cable, which I've verified with an ohmmeter (pins 2 >3, 3 > 2, etc.), but it doesn't work. I've also tried a regular cable and that doesn't work either. 2. I know that the comm rate can be set in the FT-847. I left it set at its default 4800 baud and set DXbase to match. 3. I know the PC serial port is working because I when I connect it to my FT-1000MP with the straight-through serial cable, DXbase controls it OK. Is anyone else using an FT-847 with DXbase? Anything else to check? 73, W1JA John Pelham E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web site http://www.radiophile.com
