I'll be anxious to see if it will work on my setup.   The first 
release I downloaded worked OK.  The next release would work 
sometimes.   The communications would fail intermittently.  The 
last release will not work at all for me.   I cannot establish 
communications.   I've tried all the suggestions in the help file 
with no success.

My system seems to be very touchy regarding serial comm.   It 
uses USB and USB to serial adaptors.   I tried 6 different 
adaptors until I found one that would work with the Ten Tec, 
N4PY and some packet software.   

Here's hoping the latest release will light up.
