Thanks to the wonders of modern computers, I now have my two Icoms working
properly for SO2R.  The band info/freq info goes both ways, I can change
bands from the computer I can change the computer from the radio, I can
switch radios on the logging screen, CW, PTT, etc.

My problem was simply getting dec and hex addresses to match up.

I was having this problem before I got my addresses aligned right, except I
was getting the right frequency dial numbers and nothing else was right.
Now everything works right.

My configuration has Baud set to 4800 and TRlog also set to 4800 even though
it's the default.

I experimented and it made no difference if I had Icom's transceive switched
OFF or ON.

Best,

Mark, N5OT
