I have an Omni VI opt3 and I am trying to use it with MixW but I can't

to use Ham Radio Deluxe but with the same result. I am using the Omni's
serial interface. What am I missing? Or is there something wrong in
the Omni?
Also, does anyone have the hex strings to select the various filters in
the Omni via serial control?
I have yet to make any kind of connection between my Omni 6 Opt3 and my
computer. Care to share the secret? I've tried the serial port and the
CI-V port with every cable combination imaginable. What sort of cable
are you using?

Tod,
I using a normal 9-pin to 25-pin serial cable from the PC to the Omni
VI. I think it is a "cross-over" cable but I'm not sure on that. I can
check if you wish. I have mine set to 19200bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit. You also need to set the software up for an Icom IC-735. I've
read that IC-703 may work also but I have not tried it.

Cross over (null) cable will not work. A straight thru 9 to 25 is all
that is needed
