Halvard, I doubt you are still using all those comp ports. What happens is the drivers reserve the com port when installed. When you move on to something else the port is still assigned. Go here and use this process to clear some ports, if you're using Window7 64 bit you'll need to make the change I figured out (listed below the link). If Vista 64 bit uses the same directory structure I suspect it's the same as the Windows 7 64 bit. http://www.ehow.com/how_5232755_delete-clear-ports-use.html To use this on Windows 7 64 substitute the line cd \Windows\system32 With cd\windows\sisWOW64 Then you should be able to reassign the ports for your RigExpert to lower port numbers. 73, Greg N6PYI -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Halvard Eriksen Sent: Saturday, November 06, 2010 6:59 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Dxbase] Radio com port problem. I use Windows Vista, DxBase2007 and the RigExpert Tiny Radio interface to communicate with my IC-7000. My PC mounts the interface on Com port 21 and 22 because most of the lower port numbers are in use. This works fine when I use MixWin for digital modes but DxBase seems to require that the com port number is 16 or lower. As a result I am unable to connect DxBase2007 to my radio. Is it me or is this a known problem. If someone have a solution I would be grateful for it. 73 de Halvard Eriksen LA7XK ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: <http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase> http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: <http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm> http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: <mailto:[email protected]> mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: <http://www.qsl.net> http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: <http://www.qsl.net/donate.html> http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
