Hi,

I have also just acquired an Omni VI Opt3 and I also had a great deal of 
problem with getting the radio to talk to a PC.
After making two cables that would not work, I had a look inside the radio. 
What I found was that the way the internal wiring was a cross over cable was 
required as mine was connected up rx to rx and tx to tx.

I could not be bothered to alter the cable so I reversed plug 72 connected 
to the max232 ic on the logic board and it all worked.

The radio code is set in option three I think and default is 04.

By the way has your radio got a heterodyne on the PBT that you can hear on 
CW with narrow filters?

regards

Tim
