Regarding Win95 and CT, I found that the -AC (antenna control)
switch does not work properly if you "shell out" to a DOS window
from Win95. However, if you press F8 when your boot up screen says
"Starting Windows 95" and pick the "DOS prompt only" option, -AC
seems to work just fine.

(-AC sends the radio's band information to the computer's LPT port 
for use in automatic antenna selection schemes, and is especially 
useful for those of us who own Kenwood radios, which do not provide 
any direct band information on the back of the rig, as do Icom and 
Yaesu.)
