Wolf,
I can not duplicate your problems. After getting my FT-2000
out of storage, it works exactly as expected (no problems)
with Router 7.2.2 and Writelog 10.69D. Data communications
parameters are set to 4800, 8N2 - I have not and will not
recommend "Auto" and attempting to use other data rates.
I have confirmed proper operation with microKEYER II and
either the DB37-FT-2000 or a DB37-FT-1000MP cable with a
jumper between pins 7 and 8 of the DB9F (CAT) connector.
73,
... Joe, W4TV
