I have had no trouble interfacing CT and the MP as long as the COMTSR
settings are correct. My MP is on COM 2 and the serial card's COM 2
happens to use IRQ 9. My COMTSR2 line in a .BAT file that executes CT
looks like this:
COMTSR2 -B4800 -N82 -RTS -P2 -I9 -A2F8
The 2 stop bits are important per the Yaesu manual; possibly that may be
your difficulty.
Good luck,
Dave, K1NYK
