Bob,
You are in the very same place as W4WX ... the FT-450 CAT
Manual indicates the very same commands as the FT-2000 but
WriteLog is not hearing from the FT-450 using the FT-9000
protocol. Bill has also tried both RTS Enable/Disable in
the FT-450 as well as a cable 2-2, 3-3, 5-5 and 7-8 on the
rig end.
Unfortunately, I do not have access to a FT-450 to do any
"port snooping" with a breakout box, port monitor and
terminal software.
73,
... Joe, W4TV
