[TenTec] Logic 8 and Omni VII? - & now Omni V...

[K9MI]

Have you put N4PY's V.92 chip in the Omni V? It also requires that a cable 
described by Carl be made to get rig control to work. It didn't mention 
anything about USB. While not difficult now with the v.92 chip, it's not 
plug'n play either.

Mike, K9MI
