Ted,
As I recall, the PK232 uses a special serial cable, not the standard DB25 or
DB9 cable. The standard cable does NOT work. I'm afraid that I don't have
the pinouts for the cable, but I bet that's the problem.

Help!!!!!! I was using MixW 2.18 for the WAE contest and I can't get it to
produce a proper Cabrillo file for submission. Can anyone help me coax a
suitable Cabrillo file out of the program? Help!!!!!!
Thanks.

Hi Bob, and the group,
One possible solution would be to export an ADIF from MixW, and then import
this into N1MM.
Save the log, and you may well be able to export a Cabrillo from there.
If that doesn't work, then we need to know what file outputs you have from
MixW?
Presumably you DO have an ADIF file available?
If that is so, and N1MM cannot import an ADIF, check out the SP7DQR website
(Google it) and use one of his excellent utilities to convert to Cabrillo.
If all else fails, email me the ADIF file, and I will convert it for you.
73 and hope that helps...........

Hi Everyone...my problems with getting a pk232 unit to talk
to my computer(s) continues. I wrote last week about a unit
I bought which when powered on only showed the 4 left most LEDs
on solid and no communication at all. Well I have now picked up
yet another newer vintage unit and it is doing exactly the same
thing!! I have tried both hyperterminal in XP and PCPakratt software
to no avail. I have reset the unit by pulling the jumper from the
hole on the underside. The cable I am using to connect to the comport
of 2 different PCs was one I always used with a KPC-1 modem for packet
(it's a 25 to 25 pin type with a 25 to 9 pin adapter added to it).
Which pins in the serial cable are necessary to connect to go from a DB25
pin connector to a DB9 pin connector?? Can someone supply me a list??
I have tried setting the comport and the unit to every baudrate from
300 up to 9600 to no avail. I am absolutely frustrated.
Does this unit have a history of the MC1488 and MC1489 ICs blowing at all??
As I understand it, on power up those 4 LEDs should flash and then only
1 LED on the right side should stay on. Am I correct in this assumption??
Any further suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ted Boerkamp VE3SS
