[NA-User] The night before the contest

[Greg Clark]

Thanks for the note Jim.  I did the reset last night after your first note, on
both radios, still the same story.

A bit more to the saga though.

My first note stated all was well in a DOS window inside 98.  Not totally true.


If I'm configured for 2 radios, I can communicate to radio one with no issues,
freq control, DVK...etc.  When I do a CTRL-R to switch to radio 2, the program
shifts focus but as soon as I try anything related to frequency changes, the
program locks.  I have to do a power down to unlock the PC.

I went into BIOS and looked at COM settings, it was on AUTO.  I then moved it
to the traditional hard code settings for COM 1 and COM 2.

Right now, I don't know what to do.

Thanks
