Works fine with an Icom CT-17 (they aren't cheap, but they work).

In the IC-746
27 CI-V Baud Rate 9600   Auto doesn't seem to work unless the NA port 
is 1200.
28 CI-V Address    56h
29 CI-V Tranceive   On
30 CI-V 731 Mode   Off

NA 10.53 on my laptop on COM1 works fine.

NA 10.52 on the shack P5-133 set up as below:

Config
F4 Serial Config
COM1 3F8 9600 Xcvr1  4    (won't go any faster!)
COM2 2F8 9600 None   3
COM3 3E8 9600 TNC    5    (long serial cable to the PacketCluster box)
COM4 2E8 1200 None   9

F5 Equipment Config
A/B None
Xcvr #1  IC-746
The rest are whatever I've got plugged into things on the computer!
