[TenTec] (no subject)

I have been using Logic for years - first with my Pro and FT100D and now with 
the Orion II.  I am not sure what you mean by not interfacing directly, but 
all I have is a serial connection between the back of the O2 and my computer.  
Logic works seamlessly with it.  "Ten Tec Orion" is on the pick list for 
selecting radios to interface with.  There is a note that baud rate is ignored 
and set at 57k.  Logic is a very rich program.  One cool thing is that dx 
cluster spots are color coded by band, mode, etc depending upon whether you 
need them for a particular award.  I have multiple radios running through the 
same program, I believe it can handle 8 with the current verion.  I am 
currently running version 7, which is one behind.  On the flip side, although 
flexible as heck, it will drop you into dbase code at the drop of a hat for 
customization.  Guess there is no free lunch.  I haven't tried the other 
programs listed, but this one has worked reliably for me with multiple radios 
for quite a while.

"N4PY works very well with the Orion II and also interfaces using the Pegasus 
OLE interface with most programs, including CommCat.  I tried the CommCat 
demo but found it didn't do what I wanted, so I went with LOGic until 
something better comes along.  LOGic also does not interface directly with 
the Orion II but it does work with N4PY with no problem.  Once everything is 
set up, the interface runs very smoothly.

LOGic is more designed to work with TRX Mgr, but TRX does not support the 
Orion II and although it can be 'forced' to work with the Orion II, it does 
so very poorly."
