Tom,
Your message is interesting as I am experiencing the same problem with my
FT-1000D and RIGblaster pro. Since Tech support of W.M.R. could not solve
it, I am wondering to try your solution. However, before that, I want
to ask my
friends on this ML if there is anyone who is using FT-1000 and R.B. pro and
whether you have any problem or not.
As I am not technical and totally stuck, any advice would be most welcome.
73s, Shin JR1NHD
