Hello yet again,
I am running CT963 under DOS on a Toshiba Portege 7100 with the CI-V
connection on COM1. I cannot get any communication using CT running under DOS.
I t_e_s_t comm by typing a frequency at the CT prompt and by switching bands on
the rig. The error from CT963 is _still_ "radio not echoing".
However, I verified the port and the radio settings using TRX-Manager 3 running
under Win98. Both directions work - the computer to rig, rig to computer.
Here are the IC706IIG settings:
34 CI-V Address 04H (IC735) also tried 26H for 781
35 CI-V Baud Auto also tried 4800
36 CI-V TRN On (broadcast)
37 CI-V 731 ON (4 byte freq data) also tried Off (5byte)
Here's the ct.bat file I'm using:
SET TZ=PDT7:00
font SS
comtsr1 -P1 -B4800 -N81
ct -d %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
comtsr1 -u
font O
CT also calls out RADIO1 as COM1 4800.
I find nothing in the Icom manual for parity/startstop bits so I have them set
for no parity, 4800 baud, 1 stop bit. I also tried 2 stop bits.
What arcane piece of the puzzle am I missing?
Thanks, Tony
