N1MM has support for the Omni VI and it works well for me. I can't speak for DX4WIN. I use N3FJP's AClog for general logging and that works fine with the Omni as well.

FWIW, I made the serial cable for the Omni's 25p connector to the 'puter. I have a Herc II amp and its control lines are on the same 25p connector, so the cable is a split affair with branches that go to the Herc and to the computer (which still has old-fashioned serial and parallel ports).

I bought mine off of eBay.  For some reason they were about 3x more
expensive on their website.  Only took a couple of days for it to arrive.

I use N1MM for contest logging and DX4WIN for general logging.  I think
both of those support the Omni VI.  However, if you try some software
that doesn't have an Omni VI as a selection just try one of the older
Icom rigs such as IC735.  The Omni VI & VI+ use the Icom command set.

OK Alan, thanks a million my friend. This is the kind
of help that I was looking for. I sent an email to the
Kawa Mall web site asking about the adapter and an
extension. Do not want to buy off ebay. I will certainly
check the baud rate and destination. Taking a break from
the CQ WPX CW contest to anwer this email; now back to
the radio. 73s Rip  W7RIP
P.S. Which logging software are you using with your setup?
