[TenTec] PSK and Argo V help?

I'm attempting to get my Argo V on the air with PSK31.  I have connected the
Auxiliary cable to the sound card and I'm copying PSK without difficulty.  I
also have the rig connected to the PC via a serial cable (COM3).

My problem is getting the PTT to function using the serial RTS/DTR mode.
The software indicates that the appropriate tones are being generated but
there's no RF unless I manually hit my foot switch and activate the PTT.
The software (PSK31 Deluxe) is set for PTT via the COM3 RTS/DTR lines.

I've tried the VOX route but I haven't found the settings that avoid a
"choppy" signal.

Any insight would be appreciated.  Thanks.
