need TS-440 advice?

Sun Nov 21 22:01:57 EST 1993

I know this is somewhat off the topic, but this group is the most knowledgable
I can find and I do want this for contesting!

I have a TS440 that works perfectly in every way but one.  It will not talk
to the computer interface (IF-232c and other versions I've tried/built).
I've installed the two chips Kenwood calls for but no soap.

Anyone here have a similar problem or know of anyone who's fixed a similar
problem.  All looks 'clean' under the hood.

700 Q's X 73 Secs = 102,200

No PAC, AK, YU, and AR (arg!@#).  Heard VY1QST on 15M late on Sunday, but
he kept leaving pile-up to try and work PR for his sweep.  Never heard PAC
or AK.  Never heard AR calling CQ, but did hear several answering someone
else's CQ.  Worked 514 Q's on 40 & 80 mostly calling CQ and not one AR
called me (!@#$%).
