[NA-User] Rig Control Question - need Help!

[Rex Maner]

I use a standard  9 pin cable and a gender changer for one end with a
kenwood  TS-870

I'm running  windows ME and it works ok for  Rig control on serial port and
CW sending and PTT  on the  printer port.

The Rig control works just fine with  LOGGER  a free logging program .

Make sure that you have done th e  config.sys  in NA ,

Good Luck

Hi NA users,

NA has been my favorite contesting software for many years... but I've got a
problem.  About a year ago NA quit working for Rig Control on my two
FT-1000-MP's. (CAT is not working).  I have checked the computer's COM 1
settings and
they look good to me: 4800 baud, 8 databits, Parity- None, Stop bits 2.  See
#2 below. A couple questions please:

1) Is it true that I can use a standard (no null) 9-wire RS-232 cable? Or
would I have better results if I made up a special cable with less than 9
wires?

2) When configuring the COM 1 settings, what is the preferred setting for
"Flow Control"? (the options are: Xon Xoff,
Hardware, and None.

I sure miss Rig Control... all idears greatly appreciated!

73,
Dick- K9OM
