Bill,

I am glad you like using TR-Log.
The TenTec paragon does have computer control but as I recall 
it is not a very good command set - it has been awhile since 
Tree looked at this radio.  Some of the first generatiion of 
computer interfaces were not very good on some radios. 

The Yeasu FT736R comes to mind in this respect - with it
you can get the S-meter reading and one other 
meter reading but nothing else from it - even though
it is digital and has a computer interface. 

Mabye Tree can tell us more about the Paragon.

Thanks
