Good tip John,

I use 57600 baud on both MixW and Power SDR. However, I found that much too fast for Power SDR, so I insert a 10 ms delay from MixW just before each CAT command going to the Power SDR. I have the Serial port checker program, Checkmon, so I will run that and see if I can pin it down.

I have also had this problem for a while. It also happens when I use Ham
Radio Deluxe, although less frequently. I am also using N8VB's virtual port,
but I have tried several other virutal ports with the same results.When I
run Port Monitor it appears as if PowerSDR quits responding to commands sent
by MixW or Ham Radio Deluxe.

 I have found that if I set PowerSDR to 300 baud and MixW to 1200 baud it
seems to work in a more stable manner. (I know you don't normally set the
baud rate to different speed's, but this does seem to work with the Virutal
Serial Port) When It does loose connection of I simply uncheck "Use Cat" in
PowerSDR and recheck it and it immediately starts communicating again. I do
not have to restart PowerSDR.
