[TenTec] Omni VI interface

[Ron Feutz]

Reflectees,

I finally hooked up my laptop (Win 95, TRLog v.6.68) to my Omni VI+ 
tonight. After a few stumbles, everything seems to be working, except I 
can't QSY with the shift keys. I know RIT won't work with TT, but the 
manual makes it sound like the shift keys should allow QSY.

I have SHIFT KEY ENABLE = TRUE

My interface does not have the 1,4 and 6 pins shorted, as shown in the TT 
manual. I am using a double female DB9 cable with a serial port adapter, 
which doesn't jumper the 1,4 and 6 pins together. Is this my problem, or 
doesn't the QSY function work with the Omni?

Also, I tried everything on baud rate = 9600, and all seemed to work ok, 
and it seemed to communicate faster, but the frequency was no longer 
displayed on the computer. Any comments?

Thanks,
