I use a standard 9 pin cable and a gender changer for one end with a
kenwood TS-870
I'm running windows ME and it works ok for Rig control on serial port and
CW sending and PTT on the printer port.
The Rig control works just fine with LOGGER a free logging program .
Make sure that you have done th e config.sys in NA ,
Good Luck

Subject: [NA-User] Rig Control Question - need Help!
Hi NA users,
NA has been my favorite contesting software for many years... but I've got a
problem. About a year ago NA quit working for Rig Control on my two
FT-1000-MP's. (CAT is not working). I have checked the computer's COM 1
settings and
they look good to me: 4800 baud, 8 databits, Parity- None, Stop bits 2. See
#2 below. A couple questions please:
1) Is it true that I can use a standard (no null) 9-wire RS-232 cable? Or
would I have better results if I made up a special cable with less than 9
wires?
2) When configuring the COM 1 settings, what is the preferred setting for
"Flow Control"? (the options are: Xon Xoff,
Hardware, and None.
I sure miss Rig Control... all idears greatly appreciated!
73,
Dick- K9OM
