Jon,
I"m not familiar with the Digi Keyer, but I have a similar setup and
problem.
I also replaced a 1000D with a 7800. Everything works fine in CW and
RTTY, however the PTT doesn't work in SSB and remains key down when I
activate it.
I sent an Email to K5DJ, but no response.
One thing - I believe the serial params should be 8N1. Only Yaesu uses
2 stop bits.
Let me know if you come up with anything.
73,
Barry
