Hi Tod,
I used the two-wire CI-V interface you're referring to. Be sure you
have your virtual com port set for the same speed the Omni VI is
set for.
I'm not sure how to set that. So, you have the USB to serial
adapter, and
what CI-V converter are you using? I used a homebrew one
(described in QST
back in the 90's) and it worked very well. But the serial port
must be set
for the same speed as the Omni. Not sure what else you might
check . . .

I'm using a usb to serial that uses the Prolific 2303 chip. As
noted, this works fine with Icom 703/706 but not with the Omni.
Serial speed matches, 9600 8N1. Serial speed on the Omni is set
using the lock key and option 2. The plug from the adapter is a 3.5
mono. I've never actually seen the plug for the Icom CT-17
Thanks for the help.
