Works with Orion....Re: [TenTec] MixW and use with Orion and Argonaut V

[Tom Azlin, N4ZPT]

Hi Duffy,

Well, I just set up Mix to control my Orion as you suggested (used 57k6 
bps, RTS always on, DTR PTT+CW but will also try PTT via CAT) and I can 
command the Orion!  It appears to be one way, i.e. MixW32 does not catch 
when I change the frequency with the main dial or aux dial so perhaps Mix 
is not polling the Orion. But the wheel mouse does work so I will just 
leave the dials alone.

Now to test being able to transmitt!  After rewriting my macros to remove 
the FT-1000MP Mk V commands and see if Orion commands work!!!

Thanks for the info.

73, Tom N4ZPT
